Database record not displaying correctly - 11/8/2005 9:30:22   
I have a simple table within a database with about 7 fields. I display the records in a table, with links for each record where the user can choose to edit the record. My problem is that when I go to a specific record to edit it, those fields that have more than one word in them do not display correctly. For example, instead of "John Smith" as the contact it only displays "John". If I look at the actual database, the information is stored correctly.

I can't figure out why this is so.

Here is the code for the table showing all records:

 <table border="0" width="880">
  <tr>
    <td bgcolor="#FFCC00" width="137" align="left">Description</td>
    <td bgcolor="#FFCC00" width="116" align="left">Abbreviation</td>
    <td bgcolor="#FFCC00" width="86" align="left">Business  Area</td>
    <td bgcolor="#FFCC00" width="88" align="left">Sales Office</td>
    <td bgcolor="#FFCC00" width="140" align="left">Contact</td>
    <td bgcolor="#FFCC00" width="146" align="left">Contact Phone Number</td>
    <td bgcolor="#FFCC00" width="123" align="left">District</td>
  </tr>

<%
Dim x, bgcolor
On Error Resume Next
Equipment.MoveFirst
do while Not Equipment.eof
%>
<tr <%
if x = 1 then
response.write "bgcolor='silver'"
x=2
Else
Response.write "bgcolor='white'"
x=1
End if %>
>
    <td width="137" ><a href="edit_location.asp?LID=<%=Equipment("LID")%>&Operation=EDIT"><%=Equipment("Description")%></a>
    </td>
    <td width="116" ><%=Equipment("Abbreviation")%></td>
    <td width="86" ><%=Equipment("BusinessArea")%></td>
    <td width="88" ><%=Equipment("SalesOffice")%></td>
    <td width="140" ><%=Equipment("Contact")%></td>
    <td width="146" ><%=Equipment("ContactPhoneNumber")%></td>
    <td width="123" ><%=Equipment("Area")%></td>
  </tr>
  <%

Equipment.MoveNext
Loop

%>
</table>


Here is the code for the edit page:

<form method="POST" action="edit_location.asp?LID=<%=Request("LID")%>" onsubmit="return FrontPage_Form1_Validator(this)" name="FrontPage_Form1">
  <table width="754" height="216" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">

      <td width="338"><input type="text" name="Description" size="35" tabindex="1" value=<%=Equipment("Description")%>></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td width="412" bgcolor="#CCCCCC" align="right" >Abbreviation</td>
      <td width="338"><input type="text" name="Abbreviation" size="35" tabindex="2" value=<%=Equipment("Abbreviation")%>></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td width="412" bgcolor="#CCCCCC" align="right" >Business Area</td>
      <td width="338"><!--webbot bot="Validation"
        S-Data-Type="Number" S-Number-Separators=",." --><input type="text" name="BusinessArea" size="35" tabindex="3" value=<%=Equipment("BusinessArea")%>></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>

      <td width="338"><!--webbot bot="Validation" S-Data-Type="Number" S-Number-Separators=",." --><input type="text" name="SalesOffice" size="35" tabindex="4" value=<%=Equipment("SalesOffice")%>></td>

What are your field types in your database?

Your code works on my end.

They are all text fields.

I should have looked through these threads just a little longer before I posted. Right on page 1 I found the answer. I was missing some quotation marks.

Thanks anyway!
