Sounds like what your trying to do is:
$cartArray[] = array("ItemNumber" => $itemnumber,
"Brand" => $brand,
"Quantity" => $itemqty,
"ItemName" => $itemname);
This will give you:
$cartArray[0]["ItemNumber"] = $itemnumber;
$cartArray[0]["Brand"] = $brand;
$cartArray[0]["Quantity"] = $itemqty;
$cartArray[0]["ItemName"] = $itemname;
Running the very top statement again will give you:
$cartArray[1]["ItemNumber"] = $itemnumber;
$cartArray[1]["Brand"] = $brand;
$cartArray[1]["Quantity"] = $itemqty;
$cartArray[1]["ItemName"] = $itemname;
Note that $cartArray[] = $val is just a short hand way of doing
array_push($cartArray, $val);
