Henri, I think you will need to give some sort of number to each of the checkboxes, e.g.
for($i = 1; $i < 51; $i++) { echo "<input type='checkbox' name='lotterynumber".$i."'>"; } As you are finding, with checkboxes the value returned is either 'on' or null. So without giving specific names to the checkboxes you will be left with an array of only those checkboxes that have been checked. By giving the checkboxes a unique name - based on the numbers - you should then be able to loop through the checkboxes irrespective of whether they have been checked, e.g. for($i = 1; $i < 51; $i ++) { if (${lottery_number.$i} == 'on') echo "The number chosen was $i"; } You can then determine whether a specific checkbox has been checked by seeing if it has the value of 'on' and translate this to the number you require. I think a combination of the code I sent earlier together with that sent by Torsten will containg the answer.
