Hi Dave,
No, that is definitely a possibility. Right now I am using a foreach
loop to iterate over the $_POST array and determine if each checkbox
is checked or not, if it is checked, than a related piece of data is
written into the text file. This makes for pretty compact code. I
could as you suggest, simply check each element in the array manually
using the associative keys rather than using a loop, that way I could
do it in any order I wished, but the code gets rather long with a line
for each checkbox. I anticipate this set of checkboxes/boolean
responses may increase in the future also, so having the loop allows
for some future-proofing.

the checkbox names why not output them in the order you want? Or I am

dumb here?
why not create an array with the keys in the order you want ( $array=
array(value1,value2,....). Then loop through the array and use the
values as keys to the $_POST variable and perform your processing that way.
foreach ($array as $value) {
if (isset($_POST[$value]) {
do something;
}
}
