Bizarre Input Box Scenario

[MattJH]

When I am trying to look at my records from my "Events" database via my ASP I record strange happenings.

<% 
Response.Write "<input name ='AddressField' size='40' value=" & Events("Address1")&">"
%>

The results are that when I view the record It seems to chop off some of the value.


Like if the Address1 Field had a value of " My Address Field", I would get a returned value of "My"

But if I use the following of :

<% 
Response.Write  Events("Address1")
%>

Then "My Address Field" is returned, I have tried settings the MAXLENGTH of the input box and that didn't work.

So I am kinda lost for ideas right now.

Any help would be good!

My geuss is that you're code isn't wrong. There is only one problem that the value cannot contain a "space" so automatically chopping it to "My" in your case. May be you could try storing the value in a string.

Good luck

<%
Response.Write "<input name ='AddressField' size='40' value=" & Events("Address1")&">"
%>

<% 
Response.Write "<input name ='AddressField' size='40' value=" & Events(Address1) &">"
%>

What database do you use?

What did you change?

<%
Response.Write "<td width='15%' align='right'><strong><FONT face=Tahoma color=white size=2>Company Branch:</FONT></strong></td>"
Response.Write "<td width='85%'><input value='"& Events("CompanyBranch")&"'size='40' name='CompanyBranch'><FONT face=Tahoma color=white size=2></FONT></td>"     
%>

The above code works, which is basically the same as I originally put in as the code, but the order in which I have placed the 'name' & 'size' properties have been jumbled around?

Strange if you ask me, but I am sure there is a valid reason
