PHP using php var in html

[Freak]

Please help!
What is going wrong?

$mystring= "part1 part2 part3" // remark the spaces!
.....
<td >
<input type="text" name="test" size="50" value=<?echo ($mystring);?>>
</td>
.......
the text field will only show "part1" and not the rest of the string!

As any basic HTML manual will tell you, you need to use quotes to surround
the value of attributes. It's recommended when there aren't spaces, and
compulsory when there are. ;-)
