hi, if anyone could help, that'd be great. i have a database, with a table having a primary key of type int. selecting all the indexes, i then want to create a series of select multiple lists. using (in a loop for each index) echo "<select name=\"attribute$row[0][]\" multiple>"; and then a sub loop where all the option elements are fields from a different table yields on my web page <select name="attribute1[]" multiple>

    <option value ...</option>

</select> ... <select name="attribute10[]" multiple>

    <option value=  ...</option>

</select> my problem is accessing the fields upon form submission. i once again have a loop for each index. how do I access these? $attribute$row[0][0] doesn't get the job done. if anyone has suggestions, or maybe a better way to do it, I would really appreciate it.

Hi Scott, This is the PHP Quality Assurance team list - we don't generally discuss support issues on it. A better place to submit your messages to would be the general php list (php-general-subscribe@lists.php.net to subscribe) However, since you are here, the least I could do is point you to the right place in the manual :) Read http://www.php.net/manual/language.variables.variable.php, it should help a lot. - Zak
