I'm creating a web-based game which is going pretty well, but I've managed to break my own code and can't see what I've done to make it go wrong. This code is for some start up questions. The users answer the questions at registration based on their character and they will gain certain stats which will affect how good they are at different aspects of the game.

The questions file I haven't included here because I haven't made any changes to that code. I did make some changes to this code though when I was adding some css to change the look of the page.

What I'd like help with is that the echos of the array aren't working to show what the users picked (a temporary part of the code so I can balanace out the stats properly). I can't understand why this is, and it's probably a case of me having been working on it all day and my brain is fried, but if someone could help me that'd be great because this is driving me mad.

<?
//here is where I include the questions file

$num_of_questions = 20;
$num_of_skills = 8;

if (isset($_POST['Go']))
{
	$skills = array(0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0);

	for ($i = 1; $i <= $num_of_questions; $i++)
	{
		if ($_POST['q'][$i] > count($qs[$i][answers]) || $_POST['q'][$i] < 1)
		{
			$errmsgs[] = 'Answer all the questions, dumbass.';
			break;
		}
		else
		{
			$answer = &$_POST['q'][$i];
			for ($s = 0; $s <= $num_of_skills; $s++)
			{
				$skills[$s] += $qs[$i][answers][$answer][skills][$s];
			}
		}
	}
	$clans = array(
	  '1' => $skills[clan1],
	  '2' => $skills[clan2],
	  '3' => $skills[clan3],
	  '4' => $skills[clan4],
	);
	$clan1 = $skills[clan1];
	$clan2 = $skills[clan2];
	$clan3 = $skills[clan3];
	$clan4 = $skills[clan4];
	$highest= key(array_fill_keys(array_keys($clans, max($clans)), max($clans)));
	$memory = $skills[memory];
	$physical = $skills[physical];
	$reflexes = $skills[reflexes];
	$wethic = $skills[wethic];
	$charisma = $skills[charisma];
	echo "<br>clan1: ".$clan1;
	echo "<br>clan2: ".$clan2;
	echo "<br>clan3: ".$clan3;
	echo "<br>clan4: ".$clan4;
	echo "<br>Clan: ".$highest;
	echo "<br>memory: ".$memory;
	echo "<br>physical: ".$physical;
	echo "<br>reflexes: ".$reflexes;
	echo "<br>wethic: ".$wethic;
	echo "<br>charisma: ".$charisma;

}

echo '<form method="POST" action="startup.php">';
echo '<table border="0" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" width="100%">
		<tr>
			   <td colspan="2" style="text-align: center;"><strong>Answer these</strong></td>
			</tr>';

for ($i = 1; $i <= $num_of_questions; $i++)
{
	echo '<tr>
			<td colspan="2"><strong>'.$qs[$i][answer].'</strong></td>
		</tr>';
	for ($q = 1; $q <= $qs[$i][num]; $q++)
	{
		echo '<tr>
			<td>'.$qs[$i][answers][$q][0].'</td>
			<td><input name="q['.$i.']" value="'.$q.'" type="radio" /></td>
		</tr>
		<tr>
			<td><hr></td>
		</tr>';
	}
}

echo '</table>';
echo '<input type="submit" value="Go" name="submit"></form>';

This has to be $_POST['submit'] since the submit button's name is "submit". If that doesn't fix your problem, then you have to show us the whole code.

That worked!

Thanks very much for your help Nav, I do feel like a big arse though because it was so simple
