quotes and hidden field problems

[Anon]

i think i'm just drawing a blank, will someone please run this script, in the input box type something like
this is a test "this is a test"

when you get to the third step, it echos this is a test \

why?

<?php
if($test1)
{
echo "<form method=\"post\" action=\"$SCRIPT_NAME?test2=1\">
<input type=\"text\" name=\"test\" >
<input type=\"submit\">
</form>";
} elseif( $test2 )
{
echo "<form method=\"post\" action=\"$SCRIPT_NAME?test3=1\">
<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"test\" value=\"$test\">
<input type=\"submit\">
</form>
";
} else {
$my = $test;
echo $my;
}

?>

take a look at the html it generates. you should find the problem there. oh! btw.. don't use query strings like test3=1 in an action field. try using a hidden field like
<input type="hidden" name="test3" value="1"> and submit it using GET method ( if you really want to see the parameters in the query string ).
