I would recommend generating these checkbox / text input field combos within a loop and assign to separate arrays with the same key so you can match them up when processing later. Like this: $num_inputs = 5; // if you want 5 sets of checkboxes and text inputs. for ( $i = 0; $i < $num_inputs; $i++ ) { echo "<input type=checkbox name=checklist[$i]>Cb $i <input type=text name=text[$i]>\n"; } -- Steve Werby COO 24-7 Computer Services, LLC Tel: 804.817.2470 http://www.247computing.com/
