Input with space[strings]

hi, i have a problem with my inputs, whenever i input a name with space in the part asking for the FIRST NAME,it will jump off into asking LAST NAME. it skips the part where it asks for a middle initial. so how am i gonna fix the problem? how can i make it to accept characters with space?,below is the code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>

main()
{
char fn[25], mn[25], ln[25], adr[25], dob[25], corz[25];
int idnum;
printf("PERSONAL INFORMATION DATA");
printf("\n\n\nFIRST NAME: ");
scanf("%s", &fn[25]);


printf("MIDDLE INITIAL: ");
scanf("%s", &mn[25]);


printf("LAST NAME: ");
scanf("%s", &ln[25]);


printf("DATE OF BIRTH");
scanf("%s", &dob[25]);


printf("ADDRESS: ");
scanf("%s", &adr[25]);



printf("ID NUMBER: ");
scanf("%d", &idnum);


printf("COURSE: ");
scanf("%s", &corz[25]);


printf("PERSONAL INFORMATION DATA");
printf("\n\nNAME: %s %s. %s", fn[25], mn[25], ln[25]);
printf("\n\nDATE OF BIRTH: %s\tADDRESS: %s", dob[25], adr[25]);
printf("\n\nID NUMBER: %d\tCOURSE: %s", idnum, corz[25]);
getch();
}

> printf("\n\n\nFIRST NAME: ");
> scanf("%s", &fn[25]);
You point to an array by specifying the start subscript, not the size in the declaration.

So perhaps
scanf("%s", &fn[0]);

which is more conveniently (and usually) written as
scanf("%s", fn);

Oh, and next time, use [code][/code] tags around your code, to preserve indentation and formatting.

thank you =) and sorry about that. i do not know how to use it. ill get to it to learn how.

I am also having a similar problem...

This is my program




Now It does not allow me to type the Member's name and if I use scanf function than I have some problems with white_space...

Please Help me with gets function because I don't want to use scanf function...
Still any Help will be appreciated...

use fgets with stdin for stream:
