I'd like to add that you can also use the following syntax for textarea fields:
<input type="textarea"><?= $_POST['hidden'] ?></textarea>
which may also get you past the quoting problem.
You mean you can use:
<textarea name="hidden"><?=htmlentities($_POST['hidden'])?></textarea>
unless you prefer depreciated code and cross site scripting vulnerabilities...
