<form method="post" action="formhandler.php">
<input type="checkbox" name="colors[]" value="red">
<input type="checkbox" name="colors[]" value="green">
<input type="checkbox" name="colors[]" value="blue">
</form>

This creates the indexed array $_POST['colors'].  The array will only have
as many values as were checked.  In otherwords if Red and Blue are checked
the values will be reutnred at $_POST['colors'][0] and $_POST['colors'][1]..
not at index [0] and [2] as you might expect.

Hope this helps,
Kevin
