trouble with $_POST[''];

For some reason, the data sent through the form isn't being transfered at all to the next page.

i would look at the HTML to make sure the form names/values look right, then print_r($_POST) to see what you're getting on that page.

Why are you putting variables in the $_post?

Your doing $_POST["bla$var"];

You could try maybe $_POST["bla".$var];

Not sure if this helps or not, but on a phone that's all I really noticed.
