Shoot, my bad. Didn't even realize I posted a <textarea> in my example.

 

For <textarea>, it works a little different. So, you can keep your textarea, just use the following code:

 

<textarea class="element_2" name="aboutcompany" class="element textarea medium"><?php echo (!empty($row['aboutcompany'])) ? $row['aboutcompany'] : ''; ?><textarea>

Hi,

 

Whats the difference betweent the two?

 

This code has helped massively. Ive also sorted out my header. I was previously echoing the first name the user submitted. So if someone did change their name the site would continiously show there old name.

 

Is it possible to do this with drop down menus. I have 2 drop down menus that I need to change to this method.

Are you asking the difference between a <textarea> box and an <input> field? If so, see here.
