This script process posted checkbox values sent from a form. We have 2 php pages. At Forms.php we have a form with checkboxes and a submit button. Once we click submit button after selecting few checkboxes, the page submits values to Save.php. Then we get all selected checkbox values with the help of for loop.

Form.php

<form action="Save.php" method="post">

	<input value="Belgium" name="country[]" type="checkbox" /> Belgium
	<input value="France" name="country[]" type="checkbox" /> France
	<input value="Germany" name="country[]" type="checkbox" /> Germany
	<input value="Holland" name="country[]" type="checkbox" /> Holland
	<input value="Greece" name="country[]" type="checkbox" /> Greece
	
	<input value="Submit" type="Submit" />

</form>

Save.php

if(!empty($_POST['country'])){

	for ($i=0; $i < count($_POST['country']);$i++) {
	
		echo $_POST['country'][$i] . ", ";
	} 
}
