variables

[ligraci]

Hi again, today is very hard for me with php...
I've another prolem.

I have this variables passed from an HTML form: $box1, $box2 and $box3.

I need to get the corresponding values with a for function, but I can't write the correct name of the variable because I don't know how many $boxn var I have.

I do this:
for ($i = 1; $i <= $numvar; $i++) {
echo $box&$i; //this should be $box1, then $box2 and so on...
}

Anyone can help?

Thanks

use . instead of &, this is not bloody ASP 🙂

Thanks for help, but I wasn't success.
using . it considers $box.$i as 2 different variables and doesn't change the name of $box.

I think this is the similar to the problem I am having a couple of posts lower

it seems, like there is a space between the 2 vars ... remove it and try again:

<?
echo $box.$i ;
?>

maybe it helps ...

That's not the problem,

echo $box . $i;

should work fine.

you could try

echo "$box$i";

as well.

This is the answer:
Assuming that $i is 1, then 2, then 3 and so on ${"box".$i} is the same of $box1, $box2, $box3...

Maybe helps.

Thanks to everyone!!!
