[CLUG] TECH/PHP question

I think I realized that just after I hit send...if I explicitely name the 
array key, it will hold it's position, so to speak...

now, how would I set the name field in an html form that is within a for loop?


<?

$configtext = file ($configfile);

   for ($t=0;$t<count($configtext);$t++) {
     list($cfile,$ccaption)=explode("}",$configtext[$t]) ;
?>
<input type="text" name="<? =$t; ?>[caption]" value="<? =$ccaption; ?>">


then I just walk thru arrays 1 thru count($configtext) and do what I will 
with them...

look right?

or should the name be

<input type="text" name="array[<? =$t; ?>][caption]" value="<? =$ccaption; ?>">
