Try adding this line to the beginning of add.html somewhere:

 [- $optDisableInputScan = 1 -]

If you only want to do this temporarily, you can simply use 

 [- $optDisableInputScan = 1 -]

to turn it back on.

Sure, those fixes will work.  I just wasn't sure whether the fill algorithm
was supposed to ignore a field's value attribute...  Since it caught the
text-type field's value def, I thought that it would/should do the same for
a textarea.  

It's no big deal.  It's easy to work around :-)

Thanks,

P.S. Very impressive response time!  Thanks, guys.
