How about <input type="hidden" name="varx" value="<dtml-var var>"><input
type="hidden" name="cubex" value="<dtml-var cube>">
?

By the way, you could just do <input type="hidden" name="var"...
if you want to. There's nothing that says you have to change those variable
names for the posting of that form.
