RE: [SMARTY-DEV] trimwhitespace outputfilter bug

I'm not doing any "quoting". My assignment is (in pseudo code) $result = mysql_fetch_array($query); $a = new Product; $a->description = $result['description']; $tmpl->assign(array('a' => $a)); $tmpl->display('index.tpl'); I really don't see how this is a problem with my code. The outputfilter is ripping out the $59 if it is in a <textarea>, independent of quoting with the above assignment, the $59 dissapears in the text area. If I just put the {$a->description} outside of the <textarea> it is displayed as expected. Any help or suggestion? Seems to me the outputfilter should check for this.. > The problem here is that the assignment is the result of a database query. > The code I sent was just an example to illustrate the problem.
