I building a form for user profile editing.  
There is a textarea for description field.

If the user insert in text area the code of a youtube video file,  
\<object …

when he reeditingthe the descrption the text area have problems with  
rendering.

the code of view is:  
\<textarea name=“description” id=“description”

> %=@description

Is there a function for @description, for render the text that the user  
are insert and not render the video in textarea?
