problem with $_POST

[wkrauss]

Can a $POST be used like this?

$_POST[$someValue];

yes you are able to do that.

We'll that's what I thought but I have the following code and it doesn't work for some reason:

$varOne =  $row_rsInsertField['Field'];

do{
if(isset($row_rsInsertField['Field'])){
mysql_query ("INSERT INTO `membersInfo` VALUES '', '".$new_user_id."', '".$row_rsInsertField['id']."', '".$_POST[$varOne]."');");
}
} while ($row_rsInsertField = mysql_fetch_assoc($rsInsertField));

Any ideas?

id check to make sure its workign right like

echo "varOne = $varOne<br />_POST[varOne] = " . $_POST[$varOne];

you missed $rsInsertField = mysql_query, instead u just had it mysql_query 😛

Thanks I can't believe I didn't think of this. I figured out the problem. I had come code generating a form field but I accidentally had an extra echo so it didn't assign the $_POST value for that field which in turn caused the other part not to work. But, I fixed it. Thanks.
