I've found a bug and checked that ...

• ... the problem doesn't occur with the mkdocs or readthedocs themes
• ... the problem persists when all overrides are removed, i.e. custom_dir, extra_javascript and extra_css
• ... the documentation does not mention anything about my problem
• ... there are no open or closed issues that are related to my problem

Description

When using the search, utf-8 special characters are not displayed correctly.
This only happens in the display of the different search responses.
I don't have this feature with RTD

For exemple a search for "Source & Destination"

This happens for all utf8 encoded characters.

Example of a text with the problem:

### Source & Destination

![Capture exemple sources](img/02_exemples_sources.png){ align=right }

Elles peuvent etre dans plusieurs formats:

* IP
* Subnet/masque
* Range IP: IP1-IP2
* FQDN
* Objects depuis un firewall

Expected behaviour

The quick search displays "Source & Destination".

Actual behaviour

Steps to reproduce

1. Create page with some utf8 text: ' &
2. search for this text
