Only first word In a multi word variable is being displayed

Question

In my form I have the following values that are based on a standard PHP/MySql query.

echo \"\\n
        Locati         


        

Answer 1

You forgot quotes :

echo "<tr>\n
    <td align='right'><b>Location</b></td>
    <td><input name='student_location' type='text' size='25' style='font-weight: 700' value=\"$location\"></td>
</tr>";

Without quotes, the first word will be noted, others will be interpreted as wrong attributes.

Answer 2

you need to quote it by escaping the "

echo "<tr>\n
        <td align='right'><b>Location</b></td>
        <td><input name='student_location' type='text' size='25' style='font-weight: 700' value=\"$location\"></td>
    </tr>";

Answer 3

You need to put your single quotes around it to make it a valid attribute. The HTML is being created as value=North Campus which gets interpreted as value="North" and some Campus attribute that has no value. Use value='$location'.
