I have a loop where the variable $value is "Defence" the first time and "Attack" the second. Also, I have another variable at the same time $skill['Level'] which is 57 the first time and 65 the second. How do I do this:

$Defence_lvl = $Skill['Level'];
$Attack_lvl = $Skill['Level'];

The only thing is, is that I have to make these variable within the loop, so I have to use a command such as this:

$value_lvl = $Skill['Level']

I'm not sure on the correct syntax for that though or where the quotes are supposed to go or how the best method to do this is.

An array index begins at 0, so to reference the 57th and 65th index and assign them to those vars, it'll look something along these lines..

$Defence_lvl = $Skill[56];
$Attack_lvl = $Skill[64;

As for you last request, It doesn't make sense. "$value_lvl = $Skill['Level']" is a statement that assigns a value to a variable. Please post the "loop" code that your referring to instead of snippets.

Use two dollar signs to control variable names:

PHP Code:


$value = "Defence";

$name = $value . "_lvl";

$$name = $Skill['Level'];

echo $Defence_lvl;

$value = "Attack";

$name = $value . "_lvl";

$$name = $Skill['Level'];

echo $Attack_Lvl; 


In the above example all this is not needed, but wrap that up in your loop and it ought to work.

It works, finally.

It took a while for it to work though all because I missed a capital letter, but it finally works.

Final code on that

$name = $value . "_lvl";
$$name = $skill['Level'];

Thanks for the help
