Hi all, This one is causing me a few headaches. How should I be doing this? On my previous page I've created a series of fields using a loop so that a field is created like this: echo "<hr>$fieldname:<input name='Field$n' maxlength='25'>"; On my next page then I've got to try to read these values. I could do this as $_POST['Field0'], $_POST['Field1'] etc but a loop is what is required. I've tried getting at the value by: $a=$_POST['Field$n']; and $nb='$'."_POST['Field".$n."']"; $a=$$nb; And neither works. How should I be doing it? Thanks in advance for all help. regards, Dave --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
