Try this way..

<form action="#" method="post">
<input type="checkbox" name="check_list[]" value="1"><label>Test 1</label><br/>
<input type="checkbox" name="check_list[]" value="2"><label>Test 1</label><br/>
<input type="checkbox" name="check_list[]" value="3"><label>Test 3</label><br/>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit"/>
</form>
<?php
if(isset($_POST['submit'])){//to run PHP script on submit
if(!empty($_POST['check_list'])){
// Loop to store and display values of individual checked checkbox.
foreach($_POST['check_list'] as $selected){
echo $selected."</br>";
}
}
}
?>

Your checkboxes need to have a name & a value attribute:

<input type='checkbox' name='test1' value='1'> Test1
<input type='checkbox' name='test2' value='1'> Test2

then when that is posted you can access the values in PHP via $_POST:

$test1 = $_POST['test1']
$test2 = $_POST['test2']

Keep in mind that the values will only be returned if the box is checked, so most likely instead of the above PHP, you're more than likely just going to want to check if the value exists.

they will be in either the $_GET or the $_POST array

give the checkboxes names:

<td><input type="checkbox" value"2" name='test'>test2</td></tr>

Than in php just read the request

$test = $_REQUEST['test']

if the OP doesn't have these checkboxes inside of a , any amount of PHP code will make absolutely no difference (FROM Blender)
