My array of checkbox inputs is displaying and working perfect:

<input name="seminar[<?php echo $a; ?>]" type="checkbox" id="seminar_<?php echo $a; ?> "value="" <?php echo $checked; ?>>

This is my MySQL insert data ($s):

if ($seminar) { 
    foreach ($seminar as $s )
        $interest .= "$s ";
}

My earlier for loop that processes the checkbox inputs above, does not store the data in $s. And I am trying to find a way to store those values to pass to that foreach.

I tried ...foreach ($seminar[$a]... but obviously that does not work because my earlier loop is confined to the generation of the checkboxes. –  OldWest Jan 17 '11 at 21:43

Please reformat code, because right now it looks like your checkboxes have empty value. Of course this explains why you will not get anything in $interest string except for spaces, but I don't think that the problem is so trivial :) –  German Rumm Jan 17 '11 at 21:48
    
I am working with someone elses code, and its seems like it's just a mess of junk! This was done so wrong I am finding out now. –  OldWest Jan 17 '11 at 22:03

<input type="checkbox" name="apple[]" value="1">
<input type="checkbox" name="apple[]" value="2">
<input type="checkbox" name="apple[]" value="3">

your checkbox is something like this...............ok.

then in php you just post the variable

<?php $apple=$_POST['apple'];
   ?>

now the $apple is an array of your selected values. is it ok for your project.....................
