Not really sure of the second part of your question, but, if I remember correctly, check boxes only appear in the POST vars if they're checked. And I'm pretty sure their values are ON. So, if you have a color checkbox named "red" and tha user checks it, it should show up as $_POST['color'] = ON. If the checkbox is not checked, you won't see it in the POST vars at all. > -----Original Message----- > From: Balaji H.
