php - 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 "<tr>

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

When the value of $location is a single word it displays properly, when it is more than one word say 'North Campus' only 'North' displays.

I've doubled and triple checked and the correct value is in the database, when I do an echo for the value of $location it echoes the correct value but when it's displayed in the field above it chops the last word. It's doing it to all of my variables that are more than one word, so I've missed something obvious.

Answer 1

You forgot quotes :

echo "<tr>

    <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.
