This is how i get around it.
On the form page:
<input type="checkbox" name="SUBSCRIBE" value="YES" checked>
On the submission page:
if (empty($SUBSCRIBE)) {
$SUBSCRIBE = "NO";
}

Subject: RE: [PHP] HTTP_POST_VARS not picking up checkboxes that are
unche cked
I had some issues with that recently. It turns out that PHP will not
pick up the checkboxes, unless you use the GET method.
You can then access your vars with HTTP_GET_VARS.
This was discovered on
WIN98+ PHP 4.03pl1 + Apache 1.3++
&
WIN ME + PHP 4.03pl1 + Apache 1.3++
If someone had a different experience, then I would like to hear about
it. Please share.
