Form field display

Don’t know if this is really ModX. I have created a form that allows the user to edit user information gathered from a guestbook form. The form display the values from the database. The problem I have is that one of the fields only display the first word. When I look at view source I see that the entire field is there. The field is a name field where only the first word is displayed. I tried formatting the field and all but made no difference.

If the entire text is actually in the field, then I would take a long, hard look at the CSS file.

I did look at the css but couldn’t see anything that would effect the form fields. Here is the code from view source. I just can’t figure out why the entire value is not showing in the form field. Note, the field values are coming from the database.

<head>
<title>MODx</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="media/style/MODxLight/style.css?" />
</head>
<body>

This is the code for the form. As long as I don’t do the - value=’.row[fieldname].’ the value is displayed correctly.

$sql = "SELECT `id`, `email`, `yourName`, `address1`, `address2`, `city`, `state`, `zip`, `country`, `phone`, `fax`
FROM ".$prefix."subscribers
WHERE id = ".$subid;
$result = $modx->db->query($sql);
$row = $modx->db->getRow($result);
$name = $row[’yourName’];

$display_block .= ’
<form id="addSubscriberForm" action="index.php?a=112&id=’.$modId.’&p=8&u=’.$subid.’" method="post">
<fieldset>
</br>
<td>’.$name.’</td>
email: <input type="text" name="emailAddr" id="emailAddr"value=’.$row[’email’].’>

name: <input type="text" name="name" id="name" value=’. $name .’>

address1: <input type="text" name="address1" id="address1" value=’.$row[’address1’].’>

address2: <input type="text" name="address2" id="address1" value=’.$row[’address2’].’>

city: <input type="text" name="city" id="city" value=’.$row[’city’].’>

state: <input type="text" name="state" id="state" value=’.$row[’state’].’>

zip: <input type="text" name="zip" id="zip" value=’.$row[’zip’].’>

country: <input type="text" name="country" id="country" value=’.$row[’country’].’>

phone: <input type="text" name="phone" id="phone" value=’.$row[’phone’].’>

fax: <input type="text" name="fax" id="fax" value=’.$row[’fax’].’>

<input type="submit" name="editSubscriber" id="editSubscriber" value="Save Changes" />
</fieldset>

You need to ensure the values are enclosed in double quotes. So the code will read etc.

Thanks that was it. I feel stupid now. It’s always the small things.
