probably stupid, but...

I have a form that sends 20 rows of data into a script, instead of having to write 20 separate add functions, I wrote this piece of code... $i=1; while ($i<20) { if ($_POST[book_title_$i]' != "") { INSERT INTO curriculum VALUES ('','$_POST[book_title_$i]','$_POST[book_level_$i]','$_POST[level_grades_$i]','$_POST[book_section_$i]','$_POST[chapter_$i]','$_POST[chapter_title_$i]','$_POST[lesson_title_$i]','$_POST[skill_$i]','$_POST[life_skill_$i]','$_POST[success_indicator_$i]','$_POST[ncscos_$i]','$_POST[subject_$i]','$_POST[pages_$i]','$_POST[c_kit_$i]'); $message .= "The entry $i was entered "; $i++; } else { $i++; } } But I get THIS error in the log: [12-Nov-2004 14:59:19] PHP Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_VARIABLE, expecting ']' in /home/public/html/depts/fourh/curriculum_form_post.php on line 19 ------------- How can I go about iterating through the script? or do I just need to write 20 if/else statements and separate inserts?
