check box help.

Hey gang I'm using a checkbox in a form that has its values dumped into a mysql database. for some odd reason, the checkbox information is "lost" It worked earlier so I'm guessing I introduced a typo someplace. this is the code in the form. I figure if this looks ok to you all. I just need to go search through my code more carefully. <H2> Recurring Seminar:<input type=\"checkbox\" name=\"recur\" value=\"$recur\"></H2> Recurring seminars are displayed with a different color text in listings <BR> I create the form as a variable that is displayed. thanks, chris
