Re: simple I'm sure

It's bizarre it should work but I get back just 1, 2 or 3 Although with this just to test <input type=\"hidden\" name=\"test\" value=\"$art_nr_1\"> it works fine and i get back <input type="hidden" name="test" value="124478"> And really weird it this version for ($i=1; $i<50; $i++) : $quantid = "quant".$i ; if ($$quantid != "") {

    $artid = "art_nr_".$i;
    echo "
    <input type=\"hidden\" name=\"artnr_$i\" value=\"$$artid\">
    <input type=\"hidden\" name=\"quant_$i\" value=\"$$quantid\">
    <input type=\"hidden\" name=\"test\" value=\"$art_nr_1\">
    ";

} endfor; which gives me back

    <input type="hidden" name="artnr_1" value="$art_nr_1">
    <input type="hidden" name="quant_1" value="$quant1">

I can't spot the problem at all ? At 10:19 14/03/01 -0500, Jack Dempsey wrote:

try this...didn't test it, but i think it'll do the trick: for($i=1;$i<50;$i++){

        $varid = "quant".$i;
        if($$varid != ""){
                echo '<input type=hidden name="art_nr" value="';
                echo $art_nr_ . $i;
