RE: [PHP] if $index=1 how can I create a variable named $column_1

[..s.c.o.t.t.. [gts]]

And even though it's much less elegant than the
solution by Sean below, you could also use 'eval'

 $toast = array("wheat", "rye", "pumpernickel");
 $numbreads = count($toast);
 for ($index = 0; $index < $numbreads; $index++) {
        eval("\$column$index = '$toast[$index]';
                echo \$column$index . '<BR>';") ;
 }
