Putting blackslashes in input values.

[ridikuloz]

echo "4 <input type=\"file\" value='C:\images\' name=\"image4\" class=\"form\"><br>";

I need help putting blackslashes in input values. The problem is that it's not showing up on the page. Any help to make it show up?

I always break out of php to show html.
such as:

<?php
while (true)
{   //open brace
?>
all my html tags <?php echo $phpVar; ?> with php vars included
<?php
}   //end brace
?>

or you can do like this:

echo '4 <input type="file" value="C:\images\" name="image4" class="form"><br />'; 

read here to see the performance diferences between echoing and breaking out of php:

Still doesn't show up even after breaking out of PHP. I removed the type="file" part of the input and it magically appeared. Is it something to prevent hacking or whatnot?
