Subject: Getting NameError when trying to create a form with multiple of the 	same object

Hi,

I'm trying to create a form where a user can submit 5 of the same
object (named "ec_line_item" with attributes "item_number" and
"comments").  I'm doing something wrong because I'm getting this
error:

 NameError in Order#start
Showing app/views/order/start.rhtml where line #15 raised:
`@ec_line_item[i]' is not allowed as an instance variable name

Here's my code:

<% for i in 1 .. 5 %>
   <tr><td>
       <table>
         <tr>
           <td><%= text_field("ec_line_item[i]", "item_number") %></
td>
           <td><%= text_field("ec_line_item[i]", "comments") %></td>
         </tr>
         <tr>
           <td align="center">Item Number</td>
           <td align="center">Comments</td>
         </tr>
       </table>
     </td></tr>
<% end %>

Any ideas? - Dave
