Whilst "better" is a little subjective, the reason I define the key as
the ID of the array is that I have, in the past, needed different
amounts of information with regard to the data coming back. By using
the key/ID, I can keep all the data in 1 entry.

e.g.

Editing ...

name="data[{$a_Row['ID']}]['name']"
name="data[{$a_Row['ID']}]['date']"
name="data[{$a_Row['ID']}]['email']"

$_POST['data'][123] is the record containing 'name'=>'xxxx',
'date'=>'yyy', 'email'=>'zzz'

sort of thing.

name="data[{$a_Row['ID']}][delete]"

would have been a more appropriate in my usage.



Also, unless you've got a constant called 'id', the output wouldn't be correct.

echo '<input type="checkbox" name="delete[]" value="{$a_Row['ID']}" />';
