Alas, not only doesn't it need them, it CANNOT use them, so you are stuck if 
you want to do something such as:



name="foo[1]" value="17"

name="foo[5]" value="47"

name="foo[17]" value="32"



I was quite disappointed when I found out that ASP simply could not maintain a 
simple key-value pairing without jumping through hoops...



It made for a whole 'nother verse in my "Microsoft Sucks" song strewn 
throughout the code comments of that ASP project.



Another verse was "Boolean expressions don't short-circuit"

:-)



Ah, and "Can't moveFirst in an empty record set" was another.



Sadly, the song is lost as I failed to make a copy of that codebase before I 
moved on to another task.
