You can also return all selected checkboxes value in comma separated string. This will also make it easier for you when you send it as a parameter to SQL

Here is a sample that return all selected checkboxes values that have the name "chkboxName" in comma separate string

function showSelectedValues()
{
  alert($("input[name=chkboxName]:checked").map(

}
