You need to surround your values of your html parameter with quotes :P I would assume from this that you are not using xhtml, you really should consider using it for you web based apps. -----Original Message----- From: Melanie Philpot [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 08 July 2004 11:56 To: Turbine Users List Subject: RE: Displaying spaces in a string in the template yes elem is an element in a vector. The element is an object which has the method getTelno() to return the Telno. -----Original Message----- From: Jones Michael, Slough [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 08 July 2004 11:44 To: Turbine Users List Subject: RE: Displaying spaces in a string in the template value="$elem.getTelno()" ?? -----Original Message----- From: Melanie Philpot [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 08 July 2004 11:34 To: Turbine User (E-mail) Subject: Displaying spaces in a string in the template Hi I want to display a string with spaces in, but the template trims it for me when it come across a space. e.g. string 01252 123456 is displayed as 01252 This is the code in the template: <INPUT type="text" name="telno" SIZE="40" value=$elem.getTelno() > Is there anyway around this?
