I got some values from a previous PHP file

EX:

<?php
$value = $_GET['title'];
$value1 = $_GET['name']; 
$value2 = $_GET['age']; 
$value3 = $_GET['institution'];
?>

Now i have a form field like following

<body>
<form action="pare.php" method="post">  
<label>Title:</label>
<input type="text" name="title" size="50"/><br/>     
<label>Name:</label>
<input type="text" name="name" size="50"/><br/> 
 <label>age:</label> 
 <input type="text" name="age" size="50"/> <br/>
 <label>Institution:</label> 
<select name="institution">
<option value="">-- Select --</option>
<option value="abc">abc</option> 
</select><br/>
<label></label>
<input type="submit" value="submit" /><br/>
</form>
</body>

Now what i want to do is display the values in a PHP file($value,$value1…)in their respective form field boxes.

If the user wants to edit those values($value,$value1…) he must be able to edit and submit those values.

how can i do this?

    <input type="text" name="title" value="<?php echo htmlspecialchars($_GET['title']) ?> />

    note the use of htmlspecialchars. It prevents any HTML metacharacters (" in particular) within the data from ‘breaking’ your form – e.g… it prevents HTML injection attacks.
