Could someone tell me how to get the name of a variable as a string.
This would be useful in form submission with multiple check-boxes to
match against database records. At the moment I use ${"var".$ID[$x]} or
someting like that to go through all the possible matches, but it would
be quicker to explode the name of a checkbox like a string like cb_1 to
match to record 1 etc.
There is some reason I do not use the value of the check box, but I
can't remember it now!

For database use I do the following in forms:
name="data[field_name]"
Or for multiple table that you update together:
name="data[table_name][field_name]"
