Rephrased Question

Quick overview: 

 

I have forms writing to two columns in a table and looking to mark correct/mark error the unique entries that are put in.  (The forms writing to the db is complete)

 

By fetching unique strings from a given column ("box1t" below), I want to write back either a "1" or a "0" to another column based on a reviewer's selection ("decision") through a results table as well as a text field to a third column ("reason1") for each unique entry returned.

 

See this form: http://chipdiffendaffer.com/formtesting/translate.php

 

$box1dist = mysql_query("SELECT DISTINCT box1t FROM formtest WHERE task_id = 1");

echo "<form id=\"form1approval\" name=\"form1approval\" method=\"post\" action=\"runapproval.php\" ><table border='1'>
<tr>
<th>Box one result</th>
<th>Approve</th><th>Mark Wrong</th><th>Error Reason</th>
</tr>";
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($box1dist))
  {
  echo "<tr>";
  echo "<td>" . $row['box1t'] . "</td>";
  echo "<td>Correct: <input type=\"checkbox\" value=\"1\" name=\"decision[]\"  \/></td><td>Error: <input type=\"checkbox\" value=\"0\" name=\"decision[]\" \/> </td><td>Error Reason: <input type=\"text\" name=\"reason\" \/> </td>";
  echo "</tr>";
  }
echo "</table><input type=\"submit\" name=\"submit\" value=\"submit\" \/></form>";

?>

 

So after the fetch_array, I need to post back the user selected values from the checkboxes + the text input to the table and match them to the uniques. 

 

I know I need a loop to post back and probably some regular expression, but I'm 5 years removed from programming this stuff.   

 

I haven't gotten anywhere on my runapproval.php script.
