Problem displaying the entire string in input box (in php)

Question

I am trying to display a element from mysql table in a input box type=text. The data is a string value. But i can see only the first word of the entire string.

but if i echo the element, i get the full string value.

My code looks like this:

  echo "Title: <input type=\"text\" name=\"title\" value=".$row['Title']."></input><br>"; 

Please let me know what am i doing wrong here.

You haven't enclosed the text in quotes in the resulting HTML, try this:

echo "Title: <input type=\"text\" name=\"title\" value=\"".$row['Title']."\"></input><br>";

or better still

echo 'Title: <input type="text" name="title" value="'.$row['Title'].'"></input><br>';

which avoids having to escape the double quotes.
