x-editable textarea, html values disappear on edit

Question

when using x-editable with a textarea that has html tags, they disappear when I click edit. If I add them again, they remain there when I click again after a successful update.

Any ideas?

Answer 1

Here's one way to fix things

via HTML

<a ... data-type="textarea" data-value="<html-text>">

or via Javascript

$().editable({"value":"<html-text>"})

Replace <html-text> with the html text either in your template or in your javascript, depending on what you need.
