title: how to define a form select-name containing an individual id
body: <p>this is a part of my code in a form (where aid is a single number):</p>
  
  <pre><code>echo "&lt;select name='update-status".$q['aid']."'&gt;";
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>how can i define $stat as $_POST['<em>select-name</em>']?</p>
  
  <p>so it would look like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$stat = $_POST['update-status2'];
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>i tried this without luck obviosly:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$stat = $_POST['update-status".$q['aid']."'];
  </code></pre>
