A little PHP $_POST help

Borghunter · 08-29-2006, 09:19 AM

I am trying to use a variable in my $_POST variable like so:

PHP Code:

  $addinfoout = '';

$addinfo2 = explode(',', $addinfo);

    foreach ($addinfo2 as $addinfo3) {

        $addinfo4 = explode('|', $addinfo3);

            $addinfoout .= $addinfo4[3].$_POST($addinfo4[1]).'<br />';

    }

However I am getting this error:

Quote:

Fatal error: Function name must be a string in /home/.auntie/borghunter/borgweb.com/shop/order2.php on line 33

Does anyone here know how to use variables in the $_POST superglobal, any help is appreciated.

Thank You.

OK, so what exactly are you trying to do there, anyway?

It almost looks as though you're trying to access a POST parameter by the name of "whatever is in addinfo4". Is that right?

Anyway, that particular message is coming from the fact that you're using:
$_POST($addinfo4[1])

instead of:
$_POST[ $addinfo4[1] ]

Now, whether or not that's the only problem with the code, well, I don't know.
