Form Validation problem

[sfast]

I am using form validations for different fields.
One of them for City as -

if(($_GET['app_city']) == ''){
$cityError = "Invalid or missing city";
$error++; }
else
{
$app_city = trim(stripcslashes($_GET['app_city'])) ;

If I typed City as - "My City",

If the validation fails, it shows City as - "My" instead.
Does not consider both the words.

Can somebody help me here, please?

Thanks

Try This

$app_city = \"trim(stripcslashes($_GET['app_city']))\";

It should work as you have it. Try this to see what you get:

$app_city = trim(stripcslashes($_GET['app_city']));
echo $app_city;
echo $_GET['app_city'];

eelixduppy,
it echoes - "My City" when I try
echo $app_city;
echo $_GET['app_city'];

But in the field, it still shows
My.

The way I print city in the field is -

echo 'City:
<input maxLength="35" size="20" name="app_city" value='.$app_city.'>' ;

$app_city = \"trim(stripcslashes($_GET['app_city']))\";

This is showing me errors.

There is your problem, then. You aren't surrounding it with quotes:

 echo 'City:<input maxLength="35" size="20" name="app_city" value="'.$app_city.'">';

How could I skip this small thing.
Thankyou.

It's usually the small things that are missed. Glad you got it resolved :)
