Not encoding the quotation mark may or may not be the problem, but it's probably a good idea to do so anyway.
The CGIDEV2 encode or encode2 subprocedure can be used to do this. For details, look at those procedures in CGIDEV2/QRPGLESRC,PROTOTYPE2.
For example:
updHtmlVar('BrfTx': encode(%trimr(BrfTx)));

The double quote needs to be converted to " before using the
updHtmlVar procedure.
Your html probably looks something like this. . .
<INPUT type="text" name="myfield" value="/%myfield%/">
Assume the value of "myfield" is '"some data'
The resulting html will look like this.
<INPUT type="text" name="myfield" value=""some data">
This will cause the browser to display blanks in the form field.
Changing the double-quote to " will prevent this from happening.
