-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: MD5 Hi Jeremy,
just give the checkbox form elements the same name - then you end up with just a list of the checked options, as the form will only pass those that were ticked. However you'll need to add some error checking to make sure it doesn't crash if the user doesn't select any, as in that case the form won't pass the variable at all.
