Textboxes not displaying all data

data from mysql db

[lubber123]

I insert data - such as a title of something into a mysql db. When I retrieve the data I place it into a variabel called $value. If I simply echo the value I get all the data, however, if I try to display the data in a textbox only the first word is displayed. Anything after a word break is omitted.

e.g. the db contains "John Doe"
if I retrieve the data and echo, I get "John Doe"

If I use the code below I get "John"

<input name="cd_title" type="text" id="required" class="textbox" size="50" maxlength="150" value = "' . $value . '">';

Does anyone understand what is happening here?

This doesn't make a whole lot of sense to be honest. Is your space/word break some strange character and not actually a space at all? What does the source of the resulting page look like?

What do you see when you look at the html source?

So, here is some of the source. One of the text boxes called cd_master_owner should display the test data 'testfname testlname'. When I check in the db it is there and it is in the source code. However only the first word (testfname ) is shown in the textbox.
The other textbox, cd_title, should display 'Test1stword test2ndword' - it is in the DB and source but only shows the 'Test1stword.'

</td><td valign='middle'>&nbsp;<input name="cd_master_owner" id="required" type="text" class="textbox" size="20" maxlength="70" value = testfname testlname>
<input name="cd_title" type="text" id="required" class="textbox" size="50" maxlength="150" value = Test1stword test2ndword>

use
value='<?php echo $testfname; echo $testlname; ?>'

Hope this will help u!

Thanks for your help - on re-reviewing the code I see I am missing quotes and hence it is only showing the first word as the value. Thanks for your time.
