I should have been more explicit in my description...
The SQL command that returns the array is not the same one that
creates the checkboxes.... they are two different sql queries and I
would prefer to keep them that way.
I actually have it working for a form submit with a custom function I
got off the web. But the custom function relies on the array it's
working on to look like this:
[cb] => Array ( [0] => 1 [1] => 6 [2] => 2 [3] => 4 [4] => 3 )
So, to use my existing function, how do I get the following array to
look like the above one:
Array ( [0] => Array ( [cb] => 2 ) [1] => Array ( [cb] => 6 ) [2] =>
Array ( [cb] => 1 ) )

Hello all.
I perform a SQL query like the following:
$sql = 'select * from my_table where id="10"
It returns the the following array for 3 records:
Array ( [0] => Array ( [cb] => 2 ) [1] => Array ( [cb] => 6 ) [2]
=> Array
( [cb] => 1 ) )
The values of CB in the above array are the values of html
checkboxes on a
page.
input type="checkbox" name="cb[ ]" value="1"...
input type="checkbox" name="cb[ ]" value="2"...
input type="checkbox" name="cb[ ]" value="3"...
input type="checkbox" name="cb[ ]" value="4"... etc
If the above array's cb value matches the value of a checkbox on
the page,
I need the default state of the checkbox to be checked.... so I
know I'm
going to have some ternary logic in each html checkbox. But I
don't know
how to create a custom function from the above array to provide
that logic.
I've tried some tutorials, but with no success as the array I am
receiving
is not like those in the tutorials.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

replace the name part as following
input type="checkbox" name="cb[put_the_id_here]" value="1".
when dumping into html from array
foreach ($sql_result as $value) {
if ($value == $selected) {
input type checkbox name=cb[$value['id']] value=$value['id']
checked=checked
} else {
input type checkbox name=cb[$value['id']] value=$value['id']
}
}
hope this helps
