Actually, you are right, as you just put the checkbox index in the POST and get the value from there. So you just need the number of checkboxes...sorry. ioannes wrote:

Yes, Tedd, this does however incur the overhead of find out what i is, because it could be a range of IDs from the database, not necessarily a count of the checkboxes on the page: " for ($i = 1; $i <= 4; $i++) { $a = 'a' . $i; $b = 'whatever' . $i; if($_POST[$a] == 'on')

      {
       my_array[] = $_POST[$b]
      }

} " John
