If a heckbox is left blank, then the webserver does not pass it's name/value
pair on to the PHP processor.
This means that if you have
<input type=checkbox name=foo>
And the box is not checked, then when your script recieves the form,
$_POST['foo'] will not be available.
So to test for it, use isset($_POST['foo']) to see if they checked it.
(the example code is for version 4.1.x)
