help needed with generated input fields

[Anon]

In the first file depending on choices made by the visitor several input fields are generated using a for loop

print ("<input type=\"text\" name=\"nummer$index\" size=\"3\">");

because these need to be tranfered to the next file (using the submit button)

But i don't know if this is the correct way

Can somebody help me out

Thanks,

Yeah, that's fine. A lot of people use hidden fields to pass information to the next page.

yes i know that it generates input fields but that is not what my problem is. I might have not stated it clear enough. the problem is that i cannot find the variables in the next file because of the $ in the name for the input field. will this procedure,

print ("<input type=\"text\" name=\"nummer$index\" size=\"3\">");

generate text input fields like nummer1, nummer2, nummer3, and so on so that in the next file they will become $nummer1, $nummer2, $nummer3 ....

Because right now it does not work..
