Hi guys.

I got an entry in a field called emailfrom in my table (MySQL db).

The data in that field is: Sams Bank <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

I then do the following to retrieve the info, using a DB class

$recordset=$conn->Execute("SELECT * FROM wiml_history WHERE id = $task_id");
$row=$recordset->GetArray();

$emailfrom=$row[0]['emailfrom'];

then I echo what I get out and I just get Sams Bank

It doesnt bring back the whole entry in that field,
however when I manually change the info in the field in the DB to:

Sams Bank [EMAIL PROTECTED], it retrieves it correctly.

Why does the < > cause that not to be displayed? or is it retrieving it correctly but not showing it because of the < > (which might be conflicting with HTML tags?

thanks in advance


Have you looked into the source code?
Is there the Mail retrieved?

Probably this can help -> http://de3.php.net/htmlspecialchars
