I like the curly braces too, but there's one time when they DON'T work:

for ($i = 0; $i < $n; $i++) {
        echo "<li>{$_POST["name{$i}output"]}</li>\n";
}

If you use this technique, which is a workable but probably bad way to 
write a program, you need to use braces to distinguish the counter ($i) 
from the rest of the variable name, and thus you can't use the curly 
braces around the entire variable.
