SOLVED [PHP] var-vars question

I don´t know why the original mail took so much time, but in the meantime the problem is solved. The problem was, that the vars were not "global" in the class´s function. So the returned values wouldn´t be visible inside. I just made the var another option in the calling command, and everything works fine. Oliver At 07.05.2002 18:46, you wrote:

Hi folks, Linux, PHP3 I have the following problem: I have an object, which creates a form, wherein there are selects, which names accord to values in the database. But I didn´t get it to have a variable var, I´m sure it´s just a small thing, but I cannot see it Any suggestions ? TIA Oliver echo '<form name="g94" action="'.$to_go.'" method="get">'; // Already tried post, no difference echo '<table border="1" width="100%" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1">'; while($da=$MKA -> getDbAns()) // This gives back an array named $da while there are answers {

      $xwert=$da[1];

// $da[1] contains "abc" the var $xwert will be "abc" // now I´d like to see the value of $abc but there´s nothing in

      echo '<tr><td> '.$$xwert.'</td><td>';

// set the new select named "abc"

      echo '<select name="'.$da[1].'">';

// forget the rest, just for understanding what while does

      for($i=0; $i < 11 ; $i++)
