Input name

[Garry Jones]

Depending on certain other conditions I need to read in a specific input
name from a form.

This works...

$works=$_POST['realname'.];

But occasionally there is a value of x in this name that can be changed by
other conditions.

When processing the form I can not get this syntax right. I have tried these
variations.

$test1=$_POST['realname'.$x];
$test2=$_POST['realname' & $x];
$test3=$_POST["'realname' & $x"];
$test4=$_POST['realname$x'];
$test5=$_POST['realname'$x];
$test6=$_POST["'realname' " & "$x"];

Any ideas of the syntax when including a variable x in a $post input
reading?

Re: Input name

$value = $_POST['realname' . $x];

and

$value = $_POST["realname$x "];

should both work if $x is alphanumeric character [a-zA-Z0-9_]. If $x
contains dot '.' you need to replace it with underscore '_' (e.g.
result of image map).

If this doesn't help, post a bit more code and examples
