The method MergeText() in the Eval object in WWC does not convert double quote characters, for text variable types, into its equivalent syntax. Thus, our HTML form delimeters for the values, when the type is TEXT, will get cut as the browser things that this is the end of the value.

For example, a value such as:
This is my wonderful "nice" value
will appear as
This is my wonderful
in the value of the text box.

I had to manually add something in the method to check for character variables and STRTRAN any double quote characters into its HTML equivalent.

I never faced that situation and thought it was done automatically by WWC. But, this is not the case. Wouldn't it be better if that would be part of that method natively by WWC?
