I know you've found another (perfectly good) solution already, but I just wanted to point out that you could have used the above scenario with the names as the array indexes, like: <input type="checkbox" name="bool_questions[first_name]" value="yes"> The above input shows up in $_POST['bool_questions']['first_name'], so you could iterate over $_POST['bool_questions'] to get the result you want.
