Question

How can i get the names or id\'s of the multiple selected checkboxes on submit, using the PHP? Following is example form. Thanks.

Answer 1

You won't get the ids but the names will be associative indexes in the $_POST array (and $_REQUEST). NOTE: They will only be available in the array if they were checked by the client.

if ($_POST['oragne'] == 'on')
