Hi

I have $Name = “John Smith”;

Then I populate:
<input name=”Name” type=”text” value=<?php echo $Name ?>><br><br>

What you see on the page is just “John” in the input field and not “John Smith”

Why is this and what can I do to display “John Smith”

Pls Help.

[code=html]<input name="Name" type="text" value="<?php echo $Name ?>"><br><br>[/code]

Also, in case your $Name field contains " or ' characters, make sure you escape them using " or '.
