Hello,

remember a few points . it is not xhtml compliant to write html code
that doesnt include "" in it.. <img cellpadding="0" /> is valid xhtml
as <img cellpadding=0 /> is not.

in php print will interp. anything between " " looking for $variables
echo does not. this is slower than using echo and concatinating.

yeah its neat to break up your <? php open and closing tags.. but
sometimes this gets annoying. so my suggestion is something like this:

echo '<input type="text" name="addr" size="30" maxlength="30"
value="'.$row['addr'].'" />';

and please for the love of god its $row['addr'] not $row[addr]

i hope this was helpful :)
