help with escape characters I believe

[kramerkeller]

My HTML intention is this

<option value="username"> firstname lastname </option>

 

Pretty simple - except I am inputting username, firstname, lastname from a database

 

HELP - here is the code belowe

 

 

$result = get_users();

$num_results = $result->num_rows;

echo"<select name='salesperson'>";

for ($count = 0; $count<$num_results; $count++)

  {

    $row = $result->fetch_assoc();

echo "<option value='".$row['username']."'>".$row['firstname']." ".$row['lastname']."</option>";

  }

?>
