Hi Gavin:
Not sure if this is your problem or not, but I had a similar issue with
email message content. The solution was to change the attribute(s) on
the Service(s) used from something like:
<attribute name="textArea" type="String" mode="IN" optional="true"
allow-html="safe"/>
to:
<attribute name="textArea" type="String" mode="IN" optional="true"
allow-html="any"/>
There was something in the pasted text (a hidden character or something
that the OFBiz HTML Service validation didn't like.)
Of course, this assumes that you are calling a Service on the backend
and not processing the form some other way :-)
So, to make this change you have to figure out which Service is being
called when your form's textarea is being processed on the backend.
Best of luck.

Hi
I am trying to attac a visual-editor (Whizzywig from Unverse) to a textArea
field. It works fine when I type directly into the input box. The problem
starts when I try to paste text from any other editor (including Notepad
unformatted) into it. Ofbiz throws an error "< greater and less-than>"
symbols not allowed when it tries to validate the field. I have tried
various clean it tools - but it does not work. The Unverse website is not
helpful either. Any ideas?
