[SOLVED] Output to create variables?

[wwfc_barmy_army]

Hello.

 

I am trying to get values from a database and make them into variables at the moment i have this code:

 

$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM type") 
or die(mysql_error()); 
while ($qry = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
$name = $qry['name'];
$$name = $_GET['$name'];
}

 

But it doesn't seem to be creating the variables with the $_GET, any ideas or advice?

 

Thanks.

Try:

 

$$name = $_GET[$name];

 

Variables inside single quotes are not parsed. Therefore, your previous line tried to access the element of the $_GET array that had the key $name, rather than that which had a key which was the value of $name.

Seems to have worked Thanks mate.
