If you are repopulating a form element from outside information (variables passed from another page or pulled from a database), you want to wrap it with [input] to convert problem characters (most notably, quotation marks) to a safe form. Note the [myValue] that's being inserted there. If, on the other hand, this is an empty form that you're *not* manipulating, there's no point in using [input] since there's no value being entered. No need to have a "value" parameter either in that case. It's not that having [input][/input] in there operating on nothing will cause a problem, there's just no point for it to be there.
