Re: How to handle multiple value checkboxes

<form method="post" action="formhandler.php"> <input type="checkbox" name="colors[]" value="red"> <input type="checkbox" name="colors[]" value="green"> <input type="checkbox" name="colors[]" value="blue"> </form> This creates the indexed array $_POST['colors']. The array will only have as many values as were checked. In otherwords if Red and Blue are checked the values will be reutnred at $_POST['colors'][0] and $_POST['colors'][1].. not at index [0] and [2] as you might expect.
