Title: WB Administrator Page editor fails with <textarea>
Post by: richwingerter on February 03, 2020, 01:14:40 AM

I am using Google Chrome (Version 79.0.3945.130 (Official Build) (64-bit)) on Windows 10 and I have this issue with a code page (Code v3.0.5). The following code doesn't work when I try to edit it with WebsiteBaker Administrator:

Code: [Select]

echo '<div>';
echo '
    <div>
        <textarea id="eed-event-notes" cols="60" rows="5"></textarea>
    </div>';
echo '</div>';

When I put this in the editor in an existing page, it shows:

Code: [Select]

'; echo '
';
after the editor window.

That is, in the Pages tab under Modify or Delete Pages, I click the link for an existing page. On the Modify Page, I paste this into the window and click the Save button. The echo command appears above the Save and the Save & Back buttons.

If I change the <textarea> tag to <input>, then the page works normally.

Does anyone know what's causing this? Is there a way to fix it?

Hi, you have a problem with code and textarea?
First, use this words with the forum search (next time).

Second search result is this:

Change </textarea> to

Code: [Select]

</text'.'area>
