Perhaps you should load up your initial form and then use the view 
source option in your browser as this will probably give you insight 
into your problems...

Hi,

I have a form in which a drop down field is populated from a MySQL database.
I am also using sessions.

The problem is this. After I submit the form the session variable only shows
the part of the input before the space.

Example: if I choose Niagra Falls from the drop down list, then I only see
Niagra when I display it.

I'm not sure though if it is the session or the forms variable that is
causing the problem. I haven't been able to find much on this.

See code below

Thanks



session_start(  );

..Open database and connect to server...

Include(connect.inc);

!! Start of form !!

select name=province
option selected-- Select Province --/option			 
			 
?


$query = select pid, location from province order by location; $results =
mysql_query($query) or $mysqlerror = mysql_error(); if ($mysqlerror) { 
  	$dberror = Messed Up;

include(index.php);
exit;
}   

while ($line = mysql_fetch_array($results)) {
if($line['pid'] == 1) {
echo Option
Value=$line['location'].$line['location']./option\n;
}
}

/select

!! Rest of Form !!

I'm surprised you're not getting a parse error...

echo Option Value=' . $line['location'] . ' . $line['location'] . 
/option\n;

which of course is wrong and explains perfectly why you are getting 
the results you are getting...

it *should* display:
option value=Niagra FallsNiagra Falls/option

option value=Niagara FallsNiagara Falls/option

replace with

option value=Niagara FallsNiagara Falls/option (note the quotes)

because you will post only Niagara instead Niagara Falls

cheers,

RE: [PHP] Session variables and words with spaces

Not sure why I would get a parse error, but that did correct the problem. I
just completely missed the single quote. I never even clue'd in when I
looked at the source of the page.

Sometimes another pair of eyes does the trick. Maybe it's time for a break.

Thanks
