Well, they are not only unusually nested... additionally, they are not
exactly what you might call "clean code"...

I guess they are, but writing your PHP code in a different, cleaner and
maybe even a teeny weeny bit faster code solves your problem, too:

<?php
$str = array("Foo", "Bar");
echo 'Name: ' . $str[($str[1]) ? 1 : 0]; // will echo "Name: Bar"

$insert = mysql_query('INSERT INTO `catalogue` SET
  `model`="' . $_POST["page_row{$count}_model"] . '",
  `type`="' . $_POST["page_row{$count}_type"] . '",
  `updated`=UNIX_TIMESTAMP();');
?>
