Yes, but the manual says that's a feature that may not exist in future versions of 
php.  See this link for details:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.array.php#language.types.array.foo-bar

Hallo Matt,
thank you for the explanation and for the manual-link!

But - correct if I'm wrong - that has been possible before! Or not?

Uwe

It is possible to use arrays within strings, just skip ''.
Write
$name="My $name[name]";
instead

Try 

$name = "My {$row['name']}";

or

$name = "My ".$row['name'];

AFAIR you can't use array variables straight within strings.

Maybe I'm just about to be proved wrong :)

You have to wrap array references in curly braces within double quoted strings. Proper 
form is:
$name = "My {$row['name']}";
