Using $variable outside a foreach loop

[sono-io]

        Maybe it's too early in the morning here, but I can't seem to remember 
how to use a lexical $variable that is defined inside a foreach loop, outside 
of that loop.    =:\

        Here's the loop:

                foreach my $name (split (/, */, $names)) {
                        next unless ($name =~ /\w/);
                        my $sortstr = substr("00$totalcells", -2);
                        $html =~ s|</td><td|</td>\n<td|g;
                        $cell{"$sortstr$name"} = "<!--//CELL $name//-->";
                        $cell{"$sortstr$name"} =~ s/\[NAME\]/$name/sig;
                        $totalcells++;
                }

        I want to use "$name" in another loop just after this one, but when I 
do, I get "Global symbol $name requires explicit package".

        Could someone please point me in the right direction?

Thanks,
Marc
