Description:
------------
When using an echo command to output a multi word string (a phrase with spaces) echo will only output up to the first space when embedded within an html textbox.

There is no problem if the html is included in the echo statement, for example-- 

echo"<input type=\"text\" tabindex=\"4\"         name=\"ClientLastName\" value= \"" .$row["ClientLastName"] ."\">";

Reproduce code:
---------------
<input  type="text" name="some_string" value = <? echo($row["some_string_with_spaces"]);?> >

Expected result:
----------------
<textbox>Whole Phrase With Spaces</textbox>

Actual result:
--------------
<textbox>Whole</textbox>

Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself.  For a
list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please
visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the
appropriate forum for asking support questions. 

Thank you for your interest in PHP.

Put your value in double quotes:

value="<?php echo($row["some_string_with_spaces"]);?>"
