G'day Claude, The problem is that the <input tag sees the double quote as the end of the field, so it terminates the value there, when in fact the full description is something like 12" COIL OVER REM/RES When the client calls up that product to be edited, the form shows the description as '12' not '12" COIL OVER REM/RES'
Even if he's not editing the description, when he clicks submit, the description is changed to '12' Isaac's remedy makes sense and that's what I'll use i think. I'm sorry if this seems like a very elementary problem, but its the first time I've had to deal with last century measurements - we converted to metric several decades ago.
