Same idea...
<input type="checkbox" name="remove[]" value="xx">
Where xx is the ID of that entry/row.
Then, to select whatever is in the table, minus whatever was selected...
$list = implode(',',$_POST['remove']);
$query = "SELECT * FROM Table WHERE id NOT IN ($list)";
If you want this "list" to propagate each time things are selected, then
you'll have to "remember" what's been selected using the session or hidden
elements.
