You could name them as:
<input type="checkbox" name="choice[]" value="1">
<input type="checkbox" name="choice[]" value="2">
etc...
Then $_POST['choice'] will be an array of the boxes chosen.
$list = implode(',',$_POST['choice']);
will give you a comma separated list of all items chosen.

Subject: [PHP] Checkboxes
Hi all,
I am wondering what would be the best way to handle checkboxes. I am
making a site that will display several items in a 20-items-per-page
format and each item will have a checkbox next to it for the user to
select them. Now, what I need to do is to record the items selected by
the user when clicking the "Next button" into a MySQL table. Should I
name all the checkboxes the same, using the item IDs as values and then
use an array to see which ones where selected or maybe another thing?
Thanks in advanced,
Cesar Aracena
