Those of us who maybe have a little bit of a… problem about typographical correctness would rather see the shopping cart block use × (the × HTML entity) instead of the letter x when it displays the quantity of the products therein. The attached patch goes about that. I also attached a before-and-after image. If you can't tell the difference between the two, congratulations; you're a normal, healthy human being.
For those adverse to patching, the same effect can be obtained by adding '@qtyx' => '@qty×' to the $conf['locale_custom_strings_[lang]'] array - see the very bottom of your settings.php file.

Garrett Albright commentedChanging status to reflect the presence of a patch.
Comment #2
Garrett Albright commentedLooks like it's appearing on the checkout page too. Here's a fix for that.
Comment #3
rszrama commentedHad no clue that entity existed, but apparently Lyle did since it's used in the product dimensions. : D
I've committed both fixes.
Comment #5
Island Usurper commentedI found a few more places where x was used instead of ×, so I'm reopening the issue.
Ryan, could you make sure for me that PayPal handles it correctly? I'm glad we're using cURL instead of sending XML, since that would keep us from using the entity, and I'm not positive they would display a UTF-8 character.
Comment #6
rszrama commentedShould be a quick fix.
Comment #7
Island Usurper commentedSure is. Committed.
