Hmmm ... maybe you are using an older verion of
one the modules? (i hope the HTML "shows up" in
this email ... apologies if it doesn't)

$ tpage quote.cgi
<input type="text" name="title"
value="&quot;Hello&quot;" />

$ cat quote.cgi
[%
USE CGI;
title ='"Hello"';
CGI.textfield({name => "title", value => title})
%]

$ perl -MTemplate -le'print $Template::VERSION'
2.10

$ perl -MTemplate::Plugin::CGI -le'print
$Template::Plugin::CGI::VERSION'
2.59
