I've based my entire project on // the use of input text boxes that can be read or edited. Its // a web form that gets its data from mysql tables. For some // reason when I write the code this way and use single quotes // ('), everything after a single quote in the string gets truncated: // // echo "<input $ca name=university[$y] value='$university[$y]'>"; // // But when I use double quotes (") like this: // // echo "<input $ca name=university[$y] value=\"$university[$y]\">"; // // Everything after a " gets truncated in the text string. // When I first input the data it goes into the mysql database // fine. The problem only lies in when I import the value into // the html form. I even tried writing the code like this: // // echo "<input $ca name=university[$y] value=$university[$y]>"; // // And here is what the source code shows: // <input class=Inputa name=university[1] value=John's "Wayne"> // // But the input box shows only: John's // // Oh, and I don't get the problem when I use <textarea> // instead of <input> tags, but they just won't do for the design. // Any help or advise would be greatly appreciated. // // // Larentium // [EMAIL PROTECTED] // // // -- // PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) // To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php // -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
