Uncompleted value in the form's text

[Anon]

Hello everybody,

When I try showing a value from an Array in a form's text field it just appear the first entire string.

For example,

$array[0] = 'South Town';

echo("<input type='text' name=text1 size=15 maxlength=15 value=".$valor.">");

The text field show only the value 'South'.

Why?

I'm sure it was a typo using $valor in the example when the array is $array, so I'll move on 🙂

You need to wrap the value with single quotes:
echo("<input type='text' name=text1 size=15 maxlength=15 value='".$valor."'>");
instead of:
echo("<input type='text' name=text1 size=15 maxlength=15 value=".$valor.">");

It's a subtle change, but very necessary. In your example, the 2nd word ("town") is not included in the value, but as a parameter to "input".

Hope this helps.
