I have attached a screenshot. The results are the same.
Here is the code I used.
<input type="text" name="{exp:form_helper:field_grabber field_name='channel_link'}" value="{channel_link}"id="form_channel_link" size="50"maxlength="100" />
{exp:form_helper:field_parser parse=""}{channel_link}{/exp:form_helper:field_parser}
<input type="hidden" name="{exp:form_helper:field_grabber field_name='channel_link' which='format'}" value="xhtml" /></p>
I appreciate any help you can give me on this. This is a great tool, but every weblog has a link in it, and it does this in all of them.
