    Problem with displaying MySQL DB data in on-the-fly HTML form

    I have the following problem.

    I have a form created on the fly via a perl script that maintains a MySQL
    table. Any field that has spaces does not display properly. Only the text up
    to the first space displays in the HTML text box. If I use code that embeds
    the HTML space octet, it displays properly.

    I know it must be something really dumb.

    TIA for assistance
