You need quotes around the value in your HTML:

<input type="text" name="txttitle" value="<? echo $data->title; ?>" size=50 length=70>

yeah thank you very, it works.. hmm...i think i don't give concern on the presence of that quote in every attributes i use, i thought giving it quote sign or not is not a matter..
like in inputbox i usually type <input type=text name=varname> ( is it right? since this is not xml and not touched with php )

As long as you don't have speces it works without quote marks. But it is always better to use the quotes, that way you make sure that it is understood now and in the future as well. Adding the quotes does not take more than seconds when you write the pages, but to go back and change it is a hell that takes lots of time and effort.
