Here is a very simple way of getting items from the $_POST superglobal into seperate variables. I did this so I can easily print information in a form without having to worry about "this value isn't set" messages. will create variables in the form $frm_nameInForm. foreach($_POST as $key => $value) { $varname = "frm_".$key; $$varname = $value; } [Editor Note: Instead of this code, you could simply use extract() or import_request_variables() -Philip] --was-- Here is a very simple way of getting items from the $_POST superglobal into seperate variables.

Although you can easily do it with a more compatible while loop as well. http://php.net/manual/en/language.variables.variable.php
