dynamic if statements

[Anon]

I have a page with checkboxes which if checked would pass the variable = 1 to another page.

If they checked any of the boxes I'd like to create an if statement which would echo some info back to them!

Sample:
page1.php

<input type="checkbox" name="junk_1" value="1">
<input type="checkbox" name="junk_2" value="1">
<input type="checkbox" name="junk_3" value="1">
<input type="checkbox" name="junk_4" value="1">
<input type="checkbox" name="junk_5" value="1">

They check junk_1 this gets passed to the next page.

Page2.php

<INPUT TYPE="hidden" name="junk_1" Value="1">

page3.php

create this statement only if the box was checked!!!

if ($junk_1 == "1") print ("You have chosen junk 1");

Any help is appreciated!

Forgive me for I am a Newbie!

I used "variables variables". Still one question though:

for ($id = 1 ; $id <= $maxgift ; $id++)
{
$ans = "gift_$id";
if ($$ans == "1") { echo $ans;} where $ans="gift_1"
}
I have a descriptions for gift_1....gift_10 which are hidden variables called gift_1_desc...gift_10_desc.

I would like to echo these variables after using the "variable variable" check!

Any thoughts?

Never mind touchdown!!!!

for ($id = 1 ; $id <= $maxgift ; $id++)
{
$ans = "gift$id";
$ans2 = "desc";
$ans3 = "$ans$ans2" ;
if ($$ans == "1") { echo $$ans3 ;}
}

If anyone is interested!
