Re: One quick favor!!!!!!

Each '%20' is a URL-encoded space character. In other words, the string you are getting back from your database query looks like 'fruit '. I suspect you coded the field as a fixed-length string. The best long-term fix is to change the field type to a variable-length string, so that 'fruit' is returned without trailing spaces. For a quick stop-gap, look at the PHP function trim().
