I have a page for entering text in a MySQL database and another one for editing it.

 

Entering the text with CE is no problem, the text and the formatting tags are properly stored in the MySQL database field (checked with PHPMyAdmin).

 

When trying to edit the previously entered text, CE displays this text with the formating tags, but the text in the CE field is itself not formatted by this tags.

So instead of "This is bold text" I see "This is <strong>bold</strong> text"

 

What am I doing wrong?

 

This is the code of the form in which I want to edit the previously entered text:

 

<form action="<?php echo $editFormAction; ?>" method="post" name="form1" id="form1">
  <table align="center">
    <tr valign="baseline">
      <td nowrap="nowrap" align="right">Omschrijving:</td>
      <td><input type="text" name="omschrijving" value="<?php echo htmlentities($row_Content['omschrijving'], ENT_COMPAT, 'utf-8'); ?>" size="32" /></td>
    </tr>
    <tr valign="baseline">
      <td nowrap="nowrap" align="right" valign="top">Tekst:</td>
      <td>
      <?php
         $editor=new CuteEditor();
         $editor->ID="tekst";  // same ID as your textarea
         $editor->Text=htmlentities($row_Content['tekst'], ENT_COMPAT, 'utf-8'); // Set value
         $editor->FilesPath="CuteEditor_Files";
         $editor->Draw();
         $editor=null;
  
         //use $_POST["cont_text"]to catch the data
?>
      </td>
    </tr>
    <tr valign="baseline">
      <td nowrap="nowrap" align="right">&nbsp;</td>
      <td><input type="submit" value="Record bijwerken" /></td>
    </tr>
  </table>

 

Any help will once again be greatly appreciated.
