Using a field in a sub-sub field

Hi,

I’m creating a field where the customer can make his own foto album. I’m using the colorbox plugin. The options in a repeaterfield are: albumname, albumcover (image) and in another repeaterfield you can upload a number of images.

I want to add the albumname class to all the images in the second repeaterfield but I cant get this to work. I think it has something to do with getting a value from the first repeaterfield in to the secondrepeater field.

I tried making a variable from the albumname and put in the second repeaterfield, but no luck. I was also trying to create a global variable from this album name but I don’t know if this is an option in ACF.

I’m a trying to do something impossible here?

This is my code:

 <? if(have_rows('albums')): ?>                     
      <? while(have_rows('albums')): the_row(); ?>
        <?php $albumname = get_sub_field('name'); ?>
        <script>$(".<?php $albumname; ?>").colorbox({rel:'<?php $albumname; ?>'});</script>
        <a class="<?php $albumname; ?>" href="<?= the_sub_field('album_cover'); ?>"><img class="albumcover" src="<?= the_sub_field('album_cover'); ?>"></a>
        <? if(have_rows('images')): ?>
          <? while(have_rows('images')): the_row(); ?>
            <a class="<?php $albumname; ?>" href="<?php the_sub_field('image') ?>"></a> // This is the part which is not working...
          <? endwhile; ?>    
        <? endif; ?>
      <? endwhile; ?>           
    <? endif; ?>
