[shelbytll]

Hi,
if I have a text box like this:
<?
print "<input type=\"text\" name=\"fld\" value=\"".$_POST["fld"]."\">
?>

and I type test"s in the box and then submit, I only get test . How do I get the original value?

ps: the value contains double quotes

Hi,
but if change to
value=' ".$POST["fld"]." '
instead of
value=\" ".$POST["fld"]." \" ,

then it will not work for ' (single quotes).
