[RESOLVED] Variable variable syntax

[davidjames52]

Hi all. I'm new to php but havent been able to find something to help me as yet with this. What I need to do is have a loop that create different variables. Here is my loop.

for($i=1;$i<=$rounds;$i++){
$round+'$i'+start = date("H:i",mktime($hours,$min+$minsbetween));
{

The rounds differ from 2 to 8 and I want to create a start time for each round that differs with a set variable $minbetween. is the syntax right for this. $hours and &min are also preset from a form.

variables will be $round1start, round2start etc etc

Thanks in advance

for($i=1;$i<=$rounds;$i++){
$var = "round" . $i . "start";
$$var = date("H:i",mktime($hours,$min+$minsbetween));
}

And I'll include my usual recommendation for such a situation: use an array, instead.
