Hello

How do I print a field on screen with spaces.
I use mysql
my field is like
marks =" Theory 50 100 "



please help
 
You have a couple of options:

1. Wrap it in pre tags:
Code:
echo '<pre>' . $row['marks'] . '</pre>';

2. Put it in an element with a pre style:
Code:
echo '<div style="white-space: pre;">' . $row['marks'] . '</div>';

3. Change the spaces to [ignore]&nbsp;[/ignore]:
Code:
echo str_replace (" ", "&nbsp;", $row['marks']);
 
I need to display the contents of the field as it is.

The field is like
marks =" Theory 50 100 "



i use print$ marks.

When i display this on the screen i get output as

Theory 50 100

i need output as
Theory 50 100

bye
 
Have you tried any of the options I gave you? All of them will output what you want. If you need to be guided, switch $row['marks'] with $marks in every code. If you prefer, you can also switch echo's with prints.
 
Thank you very much

The first code usig pre is working fine

bye
