Re: Variable variables ! - help

Hi there: Not sure this'll work but it's some way towards it I would think: (Note all occurances of the variable: '$display_this' //Start off the display item outside the loop $display_this = "<form>"; if ($art_nr1 != '') { $i++; $display_this .= " <td> <input type=\"hidden\" name=\"art_nr_$1\" value=\"$art_nr1\"> <input type=\"text\" name=\"quant$i\" size=\"3\" maxlength=\"5\"> </td> "; I've now got the following art_nr_1=12456 quant1="" or 1 or so And now comes the bit which doesn't work ! for ($i=1; $i<50; $i++) : $varid = "quant".$i ; if ($$varid != "") { //Continue 'building up the varuable: $display_this .= "<input type=hidden name=\"art_nr\" value=\"$art_nr_$i\"> <input type=hidden name=\"quantity\" value=\"$quant$i\"> "; } endfor; //Echo thwe variable to the page <?php echo"$display_this"; ?> #-------------------------------------------------------# "Believe nothing - consider everything" Russ Michell Anglia Polytechnic University Webteam http://gertrude.sipu.anglia.ac.uk/webteam r.j.michell@anglia.ac.uk +44 (0)1223 363271 ext 2331 www.theruss.com #-------------------------------------------------------#
