my guess would be that the checkboxes all have the same name, thus when
posted, the "question_01" field will only hold the last value (the other
values will in effect be overwritten). If you want to get the checked
value of each of these boxes they will have to have different names.

>The code I'm using is:

> <input type="checkbox" name="question_01" value="item 1" />item 1
> <input type="checkbox" name="question_01" value="item 2" />item 2
> <input type="checkbox" name="question_01" value="item 3" />item 3
> <input type="checkbox" name="question_01" value="item 4" />item 4
> <input type="checkbox" name="question_01" value="item 5" />item 5
>
