I am trying to process a form where the user uses checkboxes: <input type="checkbox" name="painDesc[]" value="1" />Sharp <input type="checkbox" name="painDesc[]" value="2" />Stabbing <input type="checkbox" name="painDesc[]" value="3" />Jabbing When I do: foreach($_REQUEST as $key => $val) {

     $$key = $val;

echo $key . ": " . $val . "<br>"; } The output is: painDesc: Array I need to know the values of the array (IE to know what the user is checking), not that there is an array. I hope to save these values to the database. Thank you. Ron

Ron: Try this: http://php1.net/b/form-checkbox/ If you want the form to retain the values, try this: http://php1.net/b/form-checkbox1/ Cheers, tedd -- ------- http://sperling.com http://ancientstones.com http://earthstones.com
