I am programming a form this morning.  I don't understand arrays really well.  
I think this is what I am needing to use, but I am really not sure.

I have a PHP script that checks a POP e-mail address and is suppose to take the 
incoming message and save it to a mySQL table based on the subject line.  Every 
now and then the subject line is broken with something like a <br /> and so I 
have a handful of messages that need to be indexed manually.  IE my script 
can't see a "Subject: Correspondence for message 123" --- it is being received 
as "Subject: Correspondence for <br />message 123"  I am trying to update the 
mySQL table with a form instead of continuing to use phpmyadmin to do these 
updates. 

What I am wanting to do in my form is call up all the incoming messages that 
have a message value of 0 and I can read through the incoming message to see 
what their reference number is and type it in the field that I have called 
"new_correspondence_received".  An example of my HTML code is below.

Where I am getting stuck is if I have more than 1 message that wasn't indexed 
automatically I am not sure how to retrieve the values of: 
correspondence_reference and new_correspondence_reference.  (The only reason I 
am displaying correspondence_received is to look for the reference number)  Can 
what I am trying to do be accomplished through an array to find out the values 
submitted?  What changes need to be made to my form so I can find out the 
values being submitted?

Each message received that isn't automatically index is dispayed through this 
form, one <TR> per message, thanks for your help.  Ron

<tr><td width=200>
<font face="times new roman">

<input id=all type="checkbox" name="correspondence_reference" value="172" 
checked> 172
</center>
</td><td width=200>
<font face="times new roman">
<center>
<input type=text name="new_correspondence_reference" size=6 maxlength=30 value 
= "0">
</center>
</td><td width=400>
<textarea COLS=50 ROWS=10 name="correspondence_received">Message here</textarea>
</td></tr>
