With or without the indices inside [] makes no difference to JavaScript
(viz).

Neither will work.

There is no combination of 'pn', '[]', and/or '0' that will work in
JavaScript to use a human-readable name matching PHP's pn[] system.
Guaranteed, cuz I spent days trying every damn one of 'em, as well as other
things that never had a chance of working.

You'll just have to use:
document.forms[0].elements[5]
document.forms[0].elements[6]
document.forms[0].elements[7]
document.forms[0].elements[8]
.
.
.

Start at whatever number the first 'pn' is, (presumably you know that) and
end when you hit the name after the last 'pn'.

you have to name the fields pn[0],pn[1]...
(you can name them all pn[] but you might have problems with the
javascript)

then to access them from javascript you go something like:
document.forms[0].elements['pn[0]'];

---> using document.forms[0].pn[0] won't work.
