You are wrong, this is from HTML 4.01 specification:

value = /cdata/ <cid:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [CA]
<cid:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
This attribute specifies the initial value
<cid:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> of
the control. It is optional except when the 
type <cid:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> attribute has the value
"radio" or "checkbox".

Upon submiting a form, only "successfull" checkboxes are submited,
so on the next page you only need this loop:

foreach($d_c_arr as $i) {
echo '';
}

$d_c_arr contains only checked checkboxes.

You are wrong, this is from HTML 4.01 specification:

value = /cdata/  [CA] 

This attribute specifies the initial value  of
the control. It is optional except when the 
type  attribute has the value "radio" or 
"checkbox".

Upon submiting a form, only "successfull" checkboxes are submited,
so on the next page you only need this loop:

foreach($d_c_arr as $i) {
echo '';
}

$d_c_arr contains only checked checkboxes.

[PHP] RE: PHP checkbox/hidden field question

[Tim Ward]

you need to define the key for checkbox arrays in order to distinguish them
(as only the checked ones will be posted)..
something like ...

As you might know, checkboxes don't have the VALUE attribute. HTML won't
even submit the VALUE attribute to the next page. You will only have an
array containing 0's and 1's, the results of the checkboxes. So, on the next
page, you will have to lookup the values again.
Then print the hidden input's to the page in a for loop, while looping
trough $d_c_arr.
