Gowthaman,

Just at a glance, it seems that you Should Only receive One value.

<input type=\"checkbox\" Name=protid value=\"$variable\">

'Name=protid' tells me that you have only created one value.

Because they ALL have the SAME name="protid" there will be only one value.

This would be more evident if they were type=radiobox. What you need is to generate:

<input type=\"checkbox\" Name=protid1 value=\"$variable\">
<input type=\"checkbox\" Name=protid2 value=\"$variable\">
<input type=\"checkbox\" Name=protid3 value=\"$variable\">
<input type=\"checkbox\" Name=protid4 value=\"$variable\">

to get separate values.

Sorry! That's html.
