Hello Serge, Yes, I guess your record is consider text so it is quoted... You seems to have find a solution, but you may have a look at XML() it gonna manage escaping and encoding for you... About the other field, if you keep going with you "manual" html tag (without using the web2py helpers) you better stick to it since you already have html formatted text content.
You mention firefox, why's that if you send mail?? Are you just send a link by mail to a user for him to access your content from you web site??
