Question about text fields

[victorb17]

Hi I have an HTML form and I'm trying to figure out if it is possible to set the text in a text field with the contents of a PHP variable. here is what I have now:

<input name="password" type="text" value="<?php $pass ?>">

I didn't think this would work, and it doesn't. Any ideas? thanks!

you are nearly there

you need to echo the vaiable to screen

<input name="password" type="text" value="<?php echo $pass ?>">
