dynamic form fields

Anon

I'm having problems in creating a form wich will do the following.

First I would like to enter in a number
then have php create the form dynamicly.

For example the form could be 'split' in two parts, on the first part of the form I enter the amount of fileds i would like.

So If i enter 8, the second part of the form would be:
<INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME="artist[]">
<INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME="artist[]">
<INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME="artist[]">
<INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME="artist[]">
<INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME="artist[]">
<INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME="artist[]">
<INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME="artist[]">
<INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME="artist[]">

I have created forms on many time before but this is stumping me, thanks

surely you could some kid of for() loop
which has php create form text inputs until 8 has been reached.

for (i=1; i<=8; i=i+1)
{
echo(<input type=text value=\"artist[]\">);
}

maybe?

Thanks.

this is what i've come up with

for ($i=0;$i<$HTTP_GET_VARS['num'];$i++)
{
echo "artist<input type=\"text\" name=\"artist$i\"><BR>";
}

I was being dumb
