DB data incompletely writing to text box
Hello all,
I am having trouble getting all the data in a database field to write to a
text box.
The data is being pulled from an Access database's table and is being written
to an HTML text box. The data does have a couple of double quotes in it, and
the text box has all the data up to the double quotes ("). However, if I
output it
directly in the HTML page via output (not in any control like a text box), it
does
ok, and it does just fine when I use a <textarea> instead of a text box, too.
Please see the code below. The last two attempts work, but the top attempt,
using the text box, only gives me the data up to the first double quote ("),
as in
the following example:
Sample data: This program likes "textareas"
Text box result: This program likes
Please help if possible!
Thank you!
