Thanks..... The below code returns each ID in an array like so... Array ( [0] =>101 [1] => 201 ). Thanks for the help! Lewis $teacherID = $_POST[teacherID]; $deleteID = $_POST[deleteID]; if(isset($delete_teacher)) { This is where I should loop through checking for the chosen ones to delete..... } <form action="" method="POST"> print "<input type=checkbox name=\"deleteID[]\" value=\"$row[teacherID]\">"; print "<input type=submit name=\"delete_teacher\" value=\"Delete the Checked Teachers\">"; ----- Original Message ----- From: "1LT John W.
