You mean enabled -- or doesn't disable js... This is true -- but it's the only way I know of to preserve the original format of the text, including html, and allow it to be updated after the fact. HTMLEditFormat() or any other kind of string manipulation going into the form field will change the content in some way after the first edit. So there really is no perfect solution -- either you lose the original format, or you rely on javascript which could potentially be disabled.
