Consider the following form in a HTML file: ... <input type=checkbox name="box" value=1> <input type=checkbox name="box" value=2> <input type=checkbox name="box" value=3> <input type=checkbox name="box" value=4> ... Now I'm posting this form into a PHP script. The problem is I can't change that HTML file. Which means I can't modify the code above into PHP prefered style: <input type=checkbox name="box[]" value=1> <input type=checkbox name="box[]" value=2> ... So, how can I get the correct values of the checkbox? $_REQUEST['box'] is not an array and only contains the last value. Thanks!
