a Newbee needs some help please

Hello Everyone,

 

I developed a contact form in dreamweaver using a few checkoff boxes. My return script works except only 1 answer comes back. Could someone help me out with how to set up this php so multiple checkoff's will work?

 

Here is part of my script from one of many questions.

 

<p align="left">Check Off The Items That Describe Yourself<br />

            <label>

              <input type="checkbox" name="selfdescription" value="driven" id="selfdescription_0" tabindex="170" />

              Highly Driven</label>

            <br />

            <label>

              <input type="checkbox" name="selfdescription" value="content" id="selfdescription_1" tabindex="175" />

              Content</label>

            <br />

            <label>

              <input type="checkbox" name="selfdescription" value="outgoing" id="selfdescription_2" tabindex="180" />

              Outgoing</label>

            <br />

            <label>

              <input type="checkbox" name="selfdescription" value="shy" id="selfdescription_3" tabindex="185" />

              On The Shy Side</label>

            <br />

            <label>

              <input type="checkbox" name="selfdescription" value="takecharge" id="selfdescription_4" tabindex="190" />

              Take Charge</label>

            <br />

            <label>

              <input type="checkbox" name="selfdescription" value="teamplayer" id="selfdescription_5" tabindex="195" />

              Team Player</label>

 

 

I searched and read and viewed some tutorials after a many days of trying I got the script to work just fine except I can get more than 1 checkoff answer

 

$selfdescriptionField =  $_POST['selfdescription_1'];

 

here is the response part

 

self description: $selfdescription <br>

 

What do I need to do to get multiple answers sent back to me

 

Thanks in advance

 

Evan

Your name field in your form for your checkbox should be an array if you want it to store multiple selections.
