Hi, Barbara,
Seems that quotes are missing around the values.
When this kind of problem arise, you should have a look at the generated
HTML. It generally helps finding what's going wrong.

Objet : Re: jsp text in sql call
Can anyone tell me how to solve this problem?
I am making a series of forms for an educational application.
I am able to insert data into a database ok. When I look into MySql the data
is all there but when I
repopulate the form from the database, the words are truncated as soon as it
encounters a space.
Here is a sample of my code:
// query statement
Statement stmt = con.createStatement();
String queryStr = "SELECT firstname,lastname FROM author";
ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery(queryStr);
while (rs.next()){
String firstname = rs.getString(1);
String lastname = rs.getString(2);
<!--Repopulate form from database -->
<FORM name=authorform action="saveauthor.jsp" >
<td>
<input name="firstname" size="30" value=<%= firstname%>>
<input name="lastname" size="30" value=<%= lastname%>>
Thank you,
