Derek,
Please have a look at the API (1), you may find methods to iterate over
a set of childrend of a given form.
I never used this, but you should find what you need by digging a little
into it :)

How would this work for a multi-select situation ie.
you have a set of checkboxes, each with the same
name - this will result in an array of values being
returned that need to be processed (presumably in
an Array() ?)

Derek,
form.getChild("textbox").getValue(); will return a String, checkboxes
return boolean values.
I process these in java with explicit casting.
In JS you could do something like :
var bool;
bool = formData.get("checkbox");
Nothing tricky here :)
