I think freeze() is not the solution what you want. freeze() is IMHO for showing exactly what the user typed in. > Here's my problem... the textarea automatically does an > htmlspecialchars call in the toHTML function.

You can use a filter (take a look at QuickForm_example5.php) or manipulate the submitted Values $form->getSubmitValue('my_textarea') directly and print them as and where you like. > I think that call to htmlspecialchars should be optional... perhaps > make it a filter or some sort, but it should not be mandatory on a > textarea. IMHO it is a bug, that currently htmlspecialchars() is not also used when freeze() text-Elements ;-) Thomas. -- http://4bconsult.de
