What do you think this is, Perl or JS? <g>...

 ><input type="text" name="textfield" value="I say: "hello"">

Basically, the browser is getting confused - it's thinking that "I say: " 
is the complete value of the input type, and the rest of the stuff it'll 
just ignore. I've seen other browsers do this too. You'll want to encode them:

<input type="text" name="textfield" value="I say: &quot;hello&quot;">
