<form name="form1" method="post" action="">
<table border="0" align="center">
<?php do {
$sys = $system['Name'];
if ($cnt == 1) {
$cnt = 2;
echo "<tr>"; ?>
<td width="161"><input name="$sys" type="checkbox" value="name">
<?php echo $sys; ?></td>
Your input box should be the following:
<input name="sys" type="checkbox" value="name">
The $ isn't necessary in the HTML code since HTML doesn't really recognize this as a variable. When the form is passed to the action page, the code in the action page (in this case PHP) creates a variable named whatever the name attribute in the HTML code holds - in this case sys.
