Why would they be different?
probably because there is either:
1. white space in the value in your data source
2. white space being outputted along side the value when creating a form field
weith that valu
that and/or possible the fact that your doing a trim()
in one place but not in another - personally I usually trim() incoming string
data
(regardless of any other validation/sanitation) to avoid stuff like this
Seems like they have add some extra
whitespace?
exactly. btw: var_dump() should be showing exactly where the white space is
e.g.:
code:
<?php
$s1 = "Company Director "; $s2 = "Company Director"; var_dump($s1, $s2);
output:
string(17) "Company Director "
string(16) "Company Director"
Without the quotes he's not going to see the extra white space though,
as the browser is going to render the first space it comes too, but it
will piss on any white space after that (for display purpose). Main
reason I wrap my debugging data in <pre></pre>.
