Unfortunately, when I put the variable name with a dot, it is not possible to read it in php and it does not show anything. Please see the code.
if (isset($_GET['submit'])) {
$show= $_GET['input_18.1']." " .$_GET['input_18.2'];
echo($show);
}
?>
<form method="get">
<input name="input_18.1">
<input name="input_18.2">
<input type="submit" name="submit">
</form>
