Also There is automatically a form field created by cf called form.fieldnames Which is list of all submmited fields,
You could loop through this list copying all fields which begin with the Prefix "business_types" to another list. You could then decide to take the portion of the name minus the prefix and save it to a list called selected business types.

Like this: <cfloop query="get_bus_type"> <tr> <td class="tablefeature"> #bus_type#</td> <td width="80" align="center" class="tablefeature"><input type="checkbox" name="business_types#get_bus_type.currentRow#" value="#bus_type#" ></td> </tr> </cfloop> Each checkbox name has to have its own name as I am using a JavaScript function to check and uncheck all of them at the same time. So they need to be individually check by the JS function to see if they are checked or not. Here is my JS function: <script language="JavaScript"> <!-- Begin function checkAll() { for (var j = 1; j <= 17; j++) { box = eval("document.BusinessType.business_types" + j); { if (box.checked == false) { box.checked = true; } else if(box.checked == true){ box.checked = false; } } } // End --> </script> In my action page I want to set all the passed/checked checkboxes as one single session variable so it can be used later on in another page. My question is how can I create this session variable from this dynamic list of form variables?
