I may have missed something in the docs, but I'm not able to figure out how to turn off the HTML entities behavior of the cute editor control.  Essentially, my problem is this:

 

I am writing a webapp that uses a template backend, my users need to be able to inject the custom template tags (they look something like: {customtag arg1="foo"}) into various areas of the template. This works great, and I'm able to pass the data back into my database fine when the items have been typed into the editor.  However, when the data is fetched from the database and put back into the editor the next time the user wants to modify the template, all of the "'s have been changed to "

 

Is there a property that i need to assign, or method i need to use when assigning my data back into the editor to prevent this?

 

Thanks in advance.

Javier,

 

Try set Editor.UseHTMLEntities Property to false

By default Cute Editor maps most special characters to the equivalent HTML entity automatically. You can turn it off by setting this property to "false".

 

 

Awesome, this is perfect.  Now I am able to write my own regular expressions for converting HTML entities and excluding areas between my template tags.  Thank you!

As an aside, it seems that the postback behavior for the control's HTML entities differs between when the control is in HTML mode and Normal mode... may be an indication of a bug somewhere.  Try putting some quotations into some text, then doing a postback in html and normal mode.  On my tests the results were different.  Can you verify?

jmvoodoo,

That's true. Some works are handled in the server side instead of the client side.
