   Then maybe you should read it again, specifically "Creating/modifying 
with square bracket syntax". That tells you why it isn't working.

However:

$year = "60";
$alist = "art".$year;

$$alist = array(0 => array(0 => "00", 1 => "01"), 1 => array(0 => "10", 
1 => "11"));

...is a small example of what you are trying to do.
