I am trying to process a form where the user uses checkboxes:

<input type="checkbox" name="painDesc[]" value="1" />Sharp
<input type="checkbox" name="painDesc[]" value="2" />Stabbing
<input type="checkbox" name="painDesc[]" value="3" />Jabbing

When I do:

foreach($_REQUEST as $key => $val) {
     $$key = $val;
         echo $key . ": " . $val . "<br>";
}

The output is:

painDesc: Array

I need to know the values of the array (IE to know what the user is
checking), not that there is an array.  I hope to save these values to the
database.

Thank you.

Ron:

Try this:

If you want the form to retain the values, try this:

http://php1.net/b/form-checkbox1/


Cheers,
