Hi,
I have a mysql database that contains various data. I am using PHP to pull out the data and display
it within a HTML form. I am having trouble with certain data that contains escaped characters.
Example: field contains --> mr "John Smith"
My PHP code is:
echo "<td width=\"50%\"><input type=\"text\"
name=\"name" . $rownum . "\" size=\"46\" value=\"" .
$queryRow[name] . "\"></td>";
The result displayed is --> mr
What happened to "John Smith" ???
I have tried the functions stripslashes and addslashes but still no luck.
Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Don
