I have this actually:

First error: using single quotes instead of double quotes.

RTFM on the string type, specially on the subject of variable expansion.

<input type="hidden" name="amount" value=\"{$line[$p]}\">

Second error: mixing double quotes and escaped doble quotes inside a
single-quoted string.

Again, RTFM on strings, keeping special attention at the set of characters
that can be escaped in a single-quoted vs a double-quoted string.

[...] Will this whole idea even work?

Yes, it will. And if you re-read the manual a couple of times, the answer
will become obvious.

Hi,

These are just my thoughts on why I made some of the mistakes. Thanks
for all your input I'll definitely be working on it.

My first error, the only reason I used single quotes is because the
form code is full of the double quotes. type="hidden", value="" and so
one. There is only one apostrophe in the whole thing so instead of
using double quotes for the echo and then having to delimit every one
of 'em, I used single quotes and only had to delimit 1. With static
amounts, the code works.

My second error,..I think I covered that in the first one..

Ok. so that's why I did what I did. Is that the wrong way of thinking
about it? I'll be reading up on this. Thanks. I guess I really just
wanted to know if it was possible, I didn't want to spend a lot of
time doing something and it all be for naught. As long as there's a
way, I'm happy to continue workin on my own. Thanks again guys.
