I have a field in MySQL that holds data that may look like this:
<b>Rose Painting</b>"Looks really nice, blah, blah"<b>25.00</b>
Now, I want to pull that data back into a form <textarea> to edit. Here's how I have
unsuccessfully been doing it:
?>
.... beginning code
<td>Description:</td>
<td><textarea name=\"description\" value='$description' cols=\"50\"
rows=\"5\"></textarea></td>
...ending code
?>
I looks like that the embedded html in the MySQL data is actually being "rendered"
(for the lack of a better term).
How can I get the whole chunk of data back into the form?
TIA,
-Shane
