Show html code from php string in textarea

If you want to show the html code as it is in string, apply the htmlentities() function to the string with html code.
Code: Select all
Title: <textarea required name="title" rows="7">'. htmlentities($row[title]) .'</textarea><br>

There are errors in html code, and no textarea; which means you modified wrong the html code in the php script.

In <textarea> you not have to add data in "value" attribute, but between starting and ending tags.
Try simple like this:
Code: Select all
Title: <textarea required name="title" rows="7">'. htmlentities($row[title]) .'</textarea><br>
- If textarea is not show in html page code, the problem is also in another part of the php code where you modified.
