Well, here's some example code.
<?
if ($action == "Check")
{
echo 'Boxes checked:<ul>';
foreach ($boxes as $box)
echo "<li> $box";
}
else
{
echo '<form method="post" action="' . $PHP_SELF .
'">';
for ($i = 1; $i < 21; $i++ )
echo '<input type="checkbox" name="boxes[]" value="' .
$i .
'"> Box ' . $i . '<br>';
echo '<input type="submit" name="action"
value="Check"></form>';
}
?>
Outputs 20 checkboxes, and tells you which ones you checked.
