[PHP] placing values in html teaxtarea
After doing calculations etc on my data I am wanting to place it in a textarea form in html. I am having trouble getting my data to show up in my texarea. For example, say after all my calculations I my field called $test ends up containing This is a test. Here is what I tried: textarea name=zoutput rows=20 cols=70 wrap value=? echo $test; ? / /textarea I can add the $test to input like this but not a textarea. Name: input type=text name=zfname value=? echo $test; ?/ br Is this possible? Thanks, Doug -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

(along the lines of Is your computer powered on?): Did you try: textarea ...echo $test;/textarea? In HTML 4/XHTML 1 and later (might be true for earlier versions, too), the tag textarea doesn't have a value attribute. Instead, the text between the textarea../textarea tags is passed to your script. Thanks, Doug -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

textareas do not use the value attribute. instead, the value is placed between the textarea/textarea tags: textarea name=zoutput rows=20 cols=70 wrap /? echo $test; ?/textarea At 08:09 AM 7/12/2004, Hull, Douglas D wrote: After doing calculations etc on my data I am wanting to place it in a textarea form in html.
