The idea is nice. I am using similiar technique in my work, but you commited
some mistakes in the code. It may cause some anger/frustration amongst newbie
ones. :-)

It sets the value of possibly non-existing $_POST["id_chbox"] to 1, that
expression is evaluated as TRUE, thus the following is always executed.
> $query_str += $_POST["id_chbox"];
You, probably, wanted to say: $query_str .= ' id';

Same here... == instead of =, and .= instead of += and ' name' instead of
$_POST['id_name'];
Also, real code should check whether any field has been already inserted in
the $query_str before the comma will be used as separator.

A few dozens of iterations should be pretty fast. And this method is more
'elegant' than linear - if( x==1)... else if( x==2) ... else if( x==3).. way.
