return stopping at a space in result

[erikas_boy]

Hello,
I'm primarily a Joomla! developer, though I occasionally have to dabble in both PHP and Mysql, but I'm definitely a noob in that regard.

I'm trying to create a form that loads with information from a shopping cart's db. When I query an entry that has a space in it, though, it only returns the characters up to the space. So, for example, if a user has their "address_1" value as "46 Glen Manor Drive", the following:
<input name="add1" type="text" id="add1" size="24" value=<?php $dbbt->p("address_1") ?>>
Only returns a text box with the number "46". Yes, I realize that at least the address should be split up into "street_number" "street_name" "street_type", but even at that, in the above case "street_name" would only return "Glen", not "Glen Manor".

Any help would be very appreciated. Fwiw, the cart in question is Virturemart for Joomla!/Mambo.

Since there are probably not many Joomla core developers in this very generic PHP forum, you will have more success at the Joomla forums.

Put quotes around what you're assigning to value, otherwise it thinks you only want the first word...

Ahhh, brilliant, thanks. Like I said, total noob when it comes to this.
