XHTML isn't too different. There are different `rules' -- like tags and attributes must be lower case, values must be surrounded by double quotes, tags without closing tags: <br />, <img src="i.gif" alt=" " />, Etc.. > I know that in a type=text (obviously not a checkbox) if you don't > use the escape backslashes, the value written into the box is 'Your' > without the 'Name #' I am told this is because the browser views the > space after 'r' in 'Your' as a break and is looking at Name # as the > next instruction, which it isn't. My two cents for the evening. Yes, that's why you surround the value in quotes. :-) Escaping has noting to do with it really, unless you're print()ing like: print "Brian is a little off his \"rocker\""; Likewise: print 'Brian is somewhat \'out of it\' most of the time'; The problem you spoke of happens when you do this: <input type="text" name="brian" value=is insane> IIRC, $brian would turn out to contain 'is' without the insanity. -- Brian Clark | Avoiding the general public since 1805!
