Multiple names breaks tag summary

Tags with more than two names break the display of tag summary in game entries. Meaning, the tag summary isn't visible.

For example, OpenGL suffers from this.

Sorry, I don't get it.

The tag summary (the floating box thingy) shows only the tag title.

Here's an example:
Open Graphics Library (OpenGL
OGL)


When it should show the following:
Open Graphics Library (OpenGL / OGL)
Games that use OGL (originally by Silicon Graphics Inc.) for graphics. A professional cross-platform 3D graphics library now maintained by Khronos Group.


The semicolon used to separate the alt titles causes the problem. Since it's als used to separate the full text from the title. Use some alternate character for it, like the pipe (|) character.

This is still present, and here's a screenshot of the wrong thing.

The OGL on the second line is one of the alt titles for the tag group while that line should have the tag description in it and the OGL in the first line as in the prior example.

This is obviously caused by how the tooltip is created. By guesswork, it's "title (alt_title;alt_title2);description", the fact that description is split from the titles with the same symbol causes the problem. So switching that symbol and the splitting part to use another symbol, pipe(|) for example, would fix this.

Sorry for taking so much time, I've just replaced the ";" with a "/" and it works for now, but I need to fix this very soon as all html entities always have the semicolon.
Thanks to UTF-8 I don't use entities, bu who knows...
