<DIV>Young<input type="checkbox" name="agegroup[]" value="young"></DIV>
<DIV>Middle<input type="checkbox" name="agegroup[]" value="middle"></DIV>
<DIV>Old<input type="checkbox" name="agegroup[]" value="old">
note that the name of all three is "agegroup[]". this ensures that it stores
the values in an array "$agegroup".
now on the next page, you can simply say
$ageresult=implode(" and ",$agegroup);
now, your query is simply:
Select age_group from patient_data where age_group = $ageresult;
You might wanna change the "and" to "or". if it's one column in the db that
has one value of the age group (young, middle, or old), i think your best
bet would be "or".
cheers,
Ospinto.
