Many fields in HTML form

I have a form with about 150 fields, however the user can add more fields, reaching about 300 fields. I'd like to know if exist a good way to put names and IDs to my fields, or i have to give each one a diferent name and ID. It's a hard job.

html with only one name for input

 <form action="checkbox.php">
<input type="checkbox" name="data[]" value="1">1<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="data[]" value="2">2<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="data[]" value="3">3<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="data[]" value="4">4<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="data[]" value="5">5<br>
<input type="submit">
</form>

checkbox.php

$data = $_GET["data"]; //$data is an array with checked option

it works also for type text

<input type="text" name="text_data[1]"><br>
<input type="text" name="text_data[2]"><br>
<input type="text" name="text_data[3]"><br>

if i understand in right, then you can use same name,id for group of same types of control (group of textbox,checkbox,etc...) and then access as array from javascript or code behind ..
