Re: [mv] passing form variable.

Ed -

the problem is the name of the variable. Aboubacar has a select box like

         <select name="[loop-code].letter1">
                      ^^^^^^^^^^^^

How can you handle a variable name, who is unknown or not static? First,
i have wrote some different solutions with fetching cgi-query-string.
But i donīt know the real problem of Abuobacar and so on, i have deleted
my different solutions and i hope, Aboubacar are able to get the value
of the ( dynamic ) variable. I have not hear about success or not.

Regards,

Joachim
