How to submit checkbox values with PHP post method

<input type="checkbox" class='form' name="checkbox_1" />

<input type="checkbox" class='form' name="checkbox_2" />

<input type="checkbox" class='form' name="checkbox_3" />

.........

<input type="checkbox" class='form' name="checkbox_10" />

The from has been submitted using the "POST" method. identify, which of the check-boxes and write their numbers in increasing order. Separated all numbers by spaces(not new lines) and do not use any HTML formatting.

For Eg:

If check-boxes 3, 5 and 10 are checked.

Ouput would be:

3 5 10

take an array for name of your checkbox as name="checkbox[]" and use same name for all your checkbox. After submitting your form receive the values of checked checkbox by using following code:

<?php
$chk="";
foreach($_POST['checkbox'] as $checkbox)
{
$chk=$chk.$checkbox;
}
echo $chk;
?>

$checked = array();

foreach ($_POST as $k => $v) {
$subject = $k;
$pattern = '/^checkbox_(\d+)$/';
  if (preg_match($pattern, $subject, $matches)) 
  {
    $checked[] = $matches[1];
  }
}

asort($checked);

foreach ($checked as $key=>$value)
echo $value .' ';

HTML Code ::

  <input type="checkbox" name="arrayValue[]"  value="value1" > value1 <br />
  <input type="checkbox" name="arrayValue[]"  value="value2" > value2 <br />
  <input type="checkbox" name="arrayValue[]"  value="value3" > value3 <br />
  <input type="checkbox" name="arrayValue[]"  value="value4" > value4 <br />

php code::

 $checkBoxValue = join(", ", $_POST['arrayValue']);  // here first (,) is user-define
                                                   // means, you can change it whatever
                                                // you want, even if it can be (space) or others

now you get the whole value of 'checkbox' in one variable

For your Each Checkbox value retrieval you can use below method to get values from checkbox are checked or not....

In My Form Page (Monday to Sunday)

 <input type="checkbox" name="checked[]" class="onoffswitch-checkbox" id="mononoffswitch" value="Mon" checked>

In My PHP Code

function IsChecked($chkname,$value)
{
    if(!empty($_POST[$chkname]))
    {
        foreach($_POST[$chkname] as $chkval)
        {
            if($chkval == $value)
            {
                return true;
            }
        }
    }
    return false;
}

if(IsChecked('checked','Mon'))
{
    $checkedMon = "Y";

}else {
    $checkedMon = "N";

}

if(IsChecked('checked','Tue'))
{
    $checkedTue = "Y";

}else {
    $checkedTue = "N";

}

if(IsChecked('checked','Wed'))
{
    $checkedWed = "Y";

}else {
    $checkedWed = "N";

}

if(IsChecked('checked','Thur'))
{
    $checkedThur = "Y";

}else {
    $checkedThur = "N";

}

if(IsChecked('checked','Fri'))
{
    $checkedFri = "Y";

}else {
    $checkedFri = "N";

}

if(IsChecked('checked','Sat'))
{
    $checkedSat = "Y";

}else {
    $checkedSat = "N";

}

if(IsChecked('checked','Sun'))
{
    $checkedSun = "Y";

}else {
    $checkedSun = "N";

}

Now you can get these variable values and can use in to your Insert Into statement ...

Like this

$addweekdays = mysqli_query($conn, "INSERT INTO weekdays(id,monday,tuesday,wednesday,thursday,friday,saturday,sunday) VALUES('$Id', '$checkedMon', '$checkedTue', '$checkedWed', '$checkedThur','$checkedFri','$checkedSat','$checkedSun')") ...

Change the markup to something like

<input type="checkbox" class='form' value="1" name="checkbox[]" />
<input type="checkbox" class='form' value="2"  name="checkbox[]" />
<input type="checkbox" class='form' value="3"  name="checkbox[]" />

and to get the values submitted, use a simple loop

foreach($_POST['checkbox'] as $checkbox){
    echo $checkbox . ' ';
}

Iterate over the $_POST array and use preg_match() to pull out the number if it starts with "checkbox_":

$checked = array();
foreach ($_POST as $k => $v) {
  if (preg_match('|^checkbox_(\d+)$!', $k, $matches) {
    $checked[] = $matches[1];
  }
}
echo implode(' ', $matches);
