Passing an array from javascript to servlet

I have a number of check boxes on my JSP page. I need to pass ids of all the check boxes to my servlet so that i can perform some database operations. I thought that i can create an array in my javascript function placed in a different .js file which would store these ids and then pass the array to my servlet. But i m not able to figure out how to apply this concept.

This type of problem is normally approached with

  <input type="checkbox" name="foo" value="1">
  <input type="checkbox" name="foo" value="2">
  <input type="checkbox" name="foo" value="3">
  <input type="checkbox" name="foo" value="4">

And then

String values[]=req.getParameterValues("foo");

Which gives you an array of all the checked values.
