It is happening with a simple case:
<%
$input := "Pete's estimate was vague but < $100000"
$template := "<p>Response: ^1</p>"
write (param text ($template; $input))
write (param text ("<p>Response: ^1</p>";$input))
write (param text ("<p>Response: ^1</p>";"Pete's estimate was
vague but < $100000"))
%>
results in:
Response: Pete's estimate was vague but < 00000
Response: Pete's estimate was vague but < 00000
Response: Pete's estimate was vague but < 00000
I don't have time to set up a plain 4D web-served testbed to rule
NTK out. That would seem really odd though as this is happening
after the request has been handled.
