I think either this is not possible or we are on cross wires. :/

My HTML code IS passing to the form correctly using my function but NOT displaying correctly!

Do you see why I'm not sure what your needs are. Your saying your passing html to the form but you show a confirmation in the url. I'm only returning what your asking. The code I provided was not necessarily complete as I only want to confirm before going any further. The code should have prefilled an input on your form that was hidden. When this form was submitted it would be carried to the confirmation page if you set your form up to use the built in version in the form builder. The second script I posted will give your just Hello as requested.:) The needs of each user is always Unique and almost always changes once we have actually seen a form.:)
I can't hear what I'm looking at.

Ok. I see where you are coming from, we are on cross lines. ;)
However, I have learnt a new piece of code that will come in handy. I will save it for future reference. :D

I am going to start this from scratch with a new post & a new Title :D

I am trying to send an HTML value in a form input field.

For example
<input type="hidden" name="html" value="<div><b>Some HTML content</b></div>" />
or

But the results in the confirmation message are not what I am hoping for!

Putting [html] in the confirmation settings within WFB results in this:
<div><b>Some HTML content</b></div>
This is what I am wanting to appear:
Some HTML content

Any ideas how to rectify this anyone - please? :/

Why not include the html on the confirmation instead of passing it?

Oh I see this has been moved back again. :)

How did I know you would ask that. ;)

Because the HTML will be dynamic, it would change depending on which page it came from. I only kept the example simple as I thought it would make it clearer.

Publishing your form with direct ftp to your cc account after exporting it will allow you to do more things. Your request would be easier if you write your own confirmation page so the html code doesn't get posted and show.
