I am a newbie to PHP so hopefully this is a easy question.
I am pulling data off of one server, which holds our data base and
posts it to my PHP page.
I have the following code on my php page:
$pfirstname = $_POST['NFIRST0'];
$plastname = $_POST['NLAST0'];
$paddress = $_POST['NSTREET0'];
$pxaddress = $_POST['NEXTRAADDRESS0']; etc....
For the $paddress variable, it is skipping anything after a space. For
example, if the address is 1234 Main, the only data that pulls in to my
php page would be 1234. It would skip the Main. This is also occuring
with other variables as well.
Anyone have any ideas to why this is happening? 9 4483
Can you supply more code so I can see see what your script is doing?
How are you pulling the data off of the server?

Hi there
How are you delivering the data to your page?
It could be because spaces in post data need to be converted to
pluses(+) or %32 before delivery
If you are using php to send the data to the php page then use the
urlencode function on the data before you post it http://uk.php.net/urlencode

I'd think the posting goes wrong, have you got a snippet of code from that
side?
What does print_r($_POST); say?
If $_POST['NSTREET0'] does have to right value, are you sure not casting
$paddress to an integer somewhere?

Yes, It's a HTML issue not a PHP one. You need to double-quote any
strings with spaces in your inputs.
Example:
echo "<input type=hidden name=paddress value=$paddress>";
should be changed to
echo "<input type=hidden name=paddress value=/"$paddress/">";
or
echo '<input type=hidden name=paddress value="$paddress">';

Hmmmz, it's getting late for you I think....

You mean:
echo "<input type=hidden name=paddress value=\"$paddress\">";
echo '<input type=hidden name=paddress value="$paddress">';
You mean:
echo '<input type=hidden name=paddress value="'.$paddress.'">';
or:
echo "<input type=hidden name=paddress value='$paddress'>";
And now we're busy. just as well put quotes around hidden: couldn't hurt,
and it's a good habit to quote all the attribute-values regardless wether it
is really necessary or not.

Oops, not enough coffee, thanks for the corrections.

Oops I forgot to convert to hex, thank you for the reminder.
