Actually i want to store the htmlspecialchars value of $var2  into the variable $vv2, for that i used value="<?php echo htmlspecialchars($var2 ); ?>" if the above is not correct,could you please let me know the syntax for that. Thanks,

The value of $var2 will be html/url string, i thought to use funcation "htmlspecialchars"  i have to use the php tag. if you have any sample code to store the html and url values in mysql db,could you please send to me. Thanks,

$vv2='variable2<input type="text" name="vars2" size="30" value="<?php echo htmlspecialchars($var2 ); ?>"> '; Please tell me what is wrong with this code, actually i want to save the value of $var2 in mysql db,but the above code is saving "<?php echo htmlspecialchars($var2 ); ?>"  into mysql db. I appreciate your help. Thanks,
