Hey guys,
i'm getting this error whe i try to access this variable. $answers[answer$n]
Parse error: parse error, expecting `']'' in
/home/blindtheory/web/quiz/add_quiz/add_quiz_process_2.php on line 36
the variable $answer[answers$n] comes from a form on the preceding page in
which a number of answers has been entered. the number of answers is up to
the user and can vary from 2 to 15. not the $n comes from a for loop whcih
enteres the answers into a database since i do not know how many answers each
user has used.
why am i getting this error?
and is there a way around it?
following is the for() loop in which this story takes place.
thanks
Jule
