Missing values

Hi, I'm in trouble with a simple function that I'm trying to implement on a my script (php 3)... In order to process a client form, I've split it into 2 steps where in the first I collect some information in an array format, and in the second one I take other information in an array format too. I mean: first form: <input type=text name=fuseVarMust[var_a]> <input type=text name=fuseVarMust[var_b]> <input type=text name=fuseVarMust[var_c]> and so on ... The problem is, when I try to print out these previous values in order to insert them in a <input type=hidden etc. etc.>, they are not present any more. I mean: when in the second client form I write: while(list($key,$value)=each($fuseVarMust)) { echo("<input type=hidden name=fuseVarMust[".$key."] value=\"".stripslashes(strip_tags(escapeshellcmd($value)))."\">\n"); } nothing is printed! The strange thing is that if I try to print the type of $fuseVarMust or the number of elements in that array, all works fine .... I known, I probably do something wrong, but I'm inable to find an easy solution ...
