I have a textbox named 'fname'. I need to echo out the input of this box inside double quotes on a another page.
User enters: Test123
returrns: "Test123"
so how can I do that with $_POST["fname"] ?
Try
<?php echo('"'.htmlspecialchars ($_POST["fname"]).'"'); ?>
Use this:
echo '"' . $_POST["fname"] . '"';
Or
echo "'" . $_POST["fname"] . "'";
of course if you want to you can replace ' and " with " or ' in the code...
There are many ways:
besides the one nyarathotep mentioned:
echo sprintf('"%s"', $_POST['fname']);
printf('"%s"', $_POST['fname']);
Or you can use:
echo "Hi how are you {$_POST['fname']} ? I am fine thanks";
If you want to use it in a string surrounded by letters, simply use curly brackets {}.
Put the $_POST['fname'] to curly brackets.
