Naming variables on the fly?

[Anon]

Hi,

Is it possible to name variables on the fly

e.g.

for ($x = 1; $x <= 6; $x++){
$variable$x = $x;

}

sort of thing?

To give:
$variable1 = 1
$variable2 = 2 etc

PHP complains when I do this. Is there a way?

for ($x = 1; $x <= 6; $x++){
${"variable$x"} = $x;

}
