But i'm sure that if you look to the page source, you will see something like <type="textarea" value="Bob is "High""> Because of that the atribute value will end at the first closeing quotes and will show only the string to that "closing" quotes. You can solve this by using the htmlspecialchars() or htmlentities() functions: $APParea1 = htmspecialchars(stripslashes($_POST['textarea'])); or can be done that other way: $APParea1 = htmlentities(stripslashes($_POST['textarea'])); Choose one or other function depending of your needs.
