How to retrieve a text from my DB and display it in textarea

[sarah89]

Hi all ^^

i want to display a text that i have in my DB in textarea, so, i use a query to select that text from the database and it work fine.
then i use the following statment:

 Print " <textarea name='bio' maxlength='370'  id='bio' rows='10' cols='44' name='bio' value=".$info['bio'] ." > </textarea> ";

but it dose not work!! and i get the textarea empty!:(((

P.S: i used

 Print $info['bio'];

and my text printed ok ^^

i think it something wrong with my using "value" ! but i couldn't find any other why.

any aides??

thank you so much ^^ <3

that's because a textarea does not have a value attribute (though its DOM representation has a value property). put the text between start and end tag.
