    <p>Based on the comments I'd say a quick answer is to check the linked article in my first comment. Yes the problem is your Form Output code is likely expecting data in a variable and not code. You need to eval() the variable in order to actually execute the code contained within. However this is not best practice. </p> <p>A better solution would be to just store the contents of $email in the DB and just send that to your form</p> <p>It's the difference between: </p> <pre><code>$x = '&lt;php? echo $hello ?&gt;'; $outstr= "&lt;input type='hidden' value=' $x ' &gt;"; //no this wont work unless you use eval($x) </code></pre> <p>EDIT:</p> <p>Based on your explanation above with content, you may just need a way to ignore everything between the tags in content and replace it with the actual content? I'm assuming you can't change the db design...</p> <p>Two quick&amp; dirty &amp; perhaps unsafe thing you can try is:</p> <pre><code>include("data:,$content"); //or eval('?&gt;'.$content.'&lt;?'); </code></pre> <p>Or you can replace with regex:</p> <pre><code>$phpTagPattern = "#&lt;\?.*?(echo)\s+(\$\w+);.*?(\?&gt;|$)#s"; //just searching specifically //for &lt;?php echo $varname; ?&gt; to replace with $varname; $replacePattern = "$2"; // this may need some cleaning/debugging here. It's late... $newContent = preg_replace($phpTagPattern,$replacePattern,$content); </code></pre> <p>Then you're still going to have to parse_str to get the variable contents anyway...somewhat safer than executing code perhaps.</p> <pre><code>echo parse_str($newContent); //should get you to actual contents of $email variable </code></pre> <p>This all might be more easily achieved with the tokenizer extension: <a href="http://www.php.net/manual/en/tokenizer.examples.php" rel="nofollow">http://www.php.net/manual/en/tokenizer.examples.php</a> You'd be searching for T_OPEN_TAG and T_CLOSE_TAG.</p> <p>For a high-level Better Way To Do This(TM) kind of explanation, it would make more sense to simply store your actual data in the database, and put the content into a templating engine like smarty. Then you create the shell of the form and just pass variables to it where needed. Keep data separate from logic, and output/formatting markup separate still. </p>

    1. COThe email is stored and used on the same page(user.php) else where...just not within the form itself. If I echo manually it goes great, but if echo within the pulled content it doesnt. Are we still on the same page?

    2. COYeah if you have the email just echo it. You don't want to echo the pulled content and eval is a bit wonky. Because you are just echoing php code. The code won't execute unless you explicitly tell it to.

    3. COhow do I echo it if its within the form? I'm totally confused with what you mean...you say to use it which I'm willing to do, but thats what I thought I was doing...the only thing I'm grabbing from the content column from the db is the form with that input and variable...You say to use it, but thats what I thought I was doing.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
