Saving html text deletes value= tag.

When i paste the following

<form method="POST" action="http://www.amazon.com/o/dt/assoc/handle-buy-box=0740749072" target="_blank">
<input type="hidden" name="asin.0740749072" value="1">

into the entry field of an article. The value="1" is removed after the save.

any idea where this is taking place? And more importantly - how do I turn it off?
This occurs with a basic setup, with little or no plugins added.

Are you using the WYSIWYGT editor? That one does not support pasting HTML code properly.

Please paste the exact contents after saving here.

Yes I was using the default wysiwyg editor.

Would an alternate editor help?

No, all WYSIWYG editors rely on Browser internal functions. Those always modify and strip your HTML code.

The only way to paste HTML code that does not get modified is to disable the WYIWYG editor (temporarily).
