Re: Truncated Variables

First, make sure you have quote in your value, something like: echo "<INPUT TYPE=\"HIDDEN\" NAME=\"var_name\" VALUE=\"$value\">; If you use INPUT TYPE=TEXT, this truncated thing should not happen if the value is from user input. Maybe you can send us part of the script that pass the var to see what's wrong? rdb On Tuesday 09 October 2001 05:11 pm, Michael J Katz wrote: > If I pass a variable from a form to another script that displays the > variable I find that text with spaces gets truncated and only the first > word displays in the display script.
