There has to be an easier way to do this. I have a page with a list of
29 options utilizing checkboxes. The options that are checked get put
into a mysql table as a 1 and the options not checked get entered as a 0.

So the table looks like this

id    cs01     cs02     cs03     cs04

1        0         0             1         0

2         1        0             0         0

3         0        0             0         1


The problem I'm running into is getting these things back out of the
table. I only want the columns where the answer is a 1.

Try this?

[ requires mysql 4.0+ ]

select id, 'cs01' as column_name from table where cs01='1' union all
select id, 'cs02' as column_name from table where cs02='1' union all
select id, 'cs03' as column_name from table where cs03='1' union all
select id, 'cs04' as column_name from table where cs04='1';
