I need a little help with my code. If I substitute the second isset statement with the input name "submit2" everything works fine. However, if I replace the name with a string variable from an array, it doesn't work. I reviewed the ISSET manual and saw that I could use an array. There has to be something I did not take into consideration with my statement.
// First isset
if (isset($_POST['submit1']))
{
$firstname = trim($_POST['firstname']);
$lastname = trim($_POST['lastname']);
$sqlPlayersearch = "SELECT id, first_name, last_name, user_city, user_state, user_zip FROM wp_players WHERE first_name = '$firstname' AND last_name = '$lastname'";
$resultSearch = mysqli_query($link, $sqlPlayersearch);
}
$sqlPlyrSrch2 = "SELECT id FROM wp_players WHERE first_name = '$firstname' AND last_name = '$lastname'";
$PlyrSrch2 = mysqli_query($link, $sqlPlyrSrch2);
$plyr = array();
while ($rowplyr1 = mysqli_fetch_array($PlyrSrch2)) {
$plyr[] = $rowplyr1[0];
}
echo $plyr[0]; // "3"
var_dump($plyr[0]); // string(1) "3"
// Second isset
if (isset($_POST['$plyr[0]'])){
$plyrfound = "Yes, It is Working";
}
?>

When I inspect the code in a browser this is what I see:
I have also placed some echo statements and var_dumps to see where I might be making a mistake:
I am expecting to see "Eric Yes, It is working". However, it does not seem to be finding the second isset as a true statement when I hit the "select" button.
Thank you in advance for any assistance.
