Show variable in text field

[ashz]

Hello,

I wish to write an HTML file with PHP script that will show a text field already filled with data (variable).

How can I do it?

Thanks a lot.

Just rename your HTML file to .php, and in the place where you want the text field to appear, put:

<textarea name="textfield" cols="20" rows="5"><?php print "whatever you want to appear in the text field"; ?></textarea>
