benchew0904 Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 I have some problem when I want to echo out a text which is retrieve from my database and place it inside a text box but it stops showing when there's a space. If I echo it out outside of the textbox, then there's no problem. May I know how to resolve this problem.

PFMaBiSmAd Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Your HTML markup is missing the quotes that go around the value=" " attribute.

AyKay47 Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Quote See PFMaBiSmAd's reply regarding the quotes. yep, i second that. OP what's happening is since you do not have quotes around the value attribute, the parser will include the text as the value until it encounters a space, which cuts the text. Text with spaces must be encased in quotes.
