Re: Session variables and words with spaces

Perhaps you should load up your initial form and then use the "view source" option in your browser as this will probably give you insight into your problems... -Brad Beauford wrote:

Hi, I have a form in which a drop down field is populated from a MySQL database. I am also using sessions. The problem is this. After I submit the form the session variable only shows the part of the input before the space. Example: if I choose Niagra Falls from the drop down list, then I only see Niagra when I display it. I'm not sure though if it is the session or the forms variable that is causing the problem. I haven't been able to find much on this. See code below.... Thanks session_start( ); ......Open database and connect to server....... Include("connect.inc"); !! Start of form !! <select name="province"> <option selected>-- Select Province --</option> <? $query = "select pid, location from province order by location"; $results = mysql_query($query) or $mysqlerror = mysql_error(); if ($mysqlerror) { $dberror = "Messed Up"; include("index.php"); exit; } while ($line = mysql_fetch_array($results)) { if($line['pid'] == 1) { echo "<Option Value="$line['location'].">"$line['location']."</option>\n"; } } </select> !! Rest of Form !!
