Which isn't working? This: ${"$options{$i}"} = "result $i"; or this: $i = 1; while ($i >= 3) { $varName = $options . $i; ${$varName} = "result $i"; } > What do the '{' mean when declaring the variable? I can't remember where it is in the documentation, but the '{' '}' symbols basically clear up any ambiguity for the parser indicatig where the actual variables are in a statement.
