Turning off multidimensional arrays via POST in PHP

[LMRandy]

Is there a way to turn off the PHP functionality for Submitting a multidimensional array via POST with php?So that submission of \[code\]<input type="text" name="variable[0][1]" value="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3592766/..." />\[/code\] produces a \[code\]$_POST\[/code\] like so...\[code\]array ( ["variable[0][1]"] => "...",)\[/code\]NOT like so:\[code\]array ( ["variable"] => array( [0] => array ( [1] => "..." ), ),)\[/code\]I'm thinking/hoping an obscure PHP.ini directive or something... ?
