OK, let's see:
First, do the connection to your DB
$query= "select * from groups"; // get the data from your grous table
$ri=mysql_query($query, $li); // execute the query agains your table
while ($data=mysql_fetch_row($ri)) { // get the row in turn, $data is the array
that holds your group data
// the following line prints the checkboxes along with it's values and
description
echo("<input name='sel_group[]' type='checkbox'
value=".$data[0].">".$data[1]."<BR>");
}

> I simply need to create a Checkbox list using data from my "groups"

> I have a table with two fields:

> 2) groups_name

> The data contained is simple:
>
> groups_id groups_name
> ----------- ----------------
> 1 Group A
> 2 Group B
> 3 Group C
> 4 Group D
>
> I would like to dynamically create a checkbox selection similar to:

> <input name="sel_group[]" type="checkbox" value="1">Group A<BR>
> <input name="sel_group[]" type="checkbox" value="2">Group B<BR>
> <input name="sel_group[]" type="checkbox" value="3">Group C<BR>
> <input name="sel_group[]" type="checkbox" value="4">Group D<BR>
>
> So I need a script that'll take this information from the groups table

> As I look at this, I believe I'm going to need to create an array
