T_VARIABLE error

[tubs2222]

Hello everyone at Php Freaks

I've been having a problem with a little lottery game of mine that i'm making. Here is the code that receieving a error.

<?

include "usernames.php";
include "numofuserbids.php";

for ($a=1; $a <= $i; $a++)
{

$tempuser = $user$a;

echo "$tempuser";

}

In the usernames.php it has in it:

<?php $user1 = tubs2222; ?><?php $user2 = abc; ?>

and in numofuserbids.php is has in it:

<? $i = 2 ?>

and finally the error that I recieve is:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /home/www/nationwar.awardspace.com/gamble/testing.php on line 9

what i'm trying to do is print out $user1 and $user 2

Thanks for reading and if you have any further question regarding my program then ask away.

I did what you said and now it outputs 12

I think:

[code]$tempuser = ${"user$a"};[/code]

will work.
