To append all checked checkboxes, just use specify the appropriate collection as query selector:

function submitTable(url)
{
  let form = document.createElement('form');
  form.setAttribute('action', url);
  $("#my-table>tbody input[type=checkbox]:checked").clone().appendTo(form);

  document.body.appendChild(form);
  form.submit();
}

Note that your current naming can not be distinguished. Generate names like name="checkbox1[1]" specifying an explicit index.

You can select all checkboxes of a table row by

  $('#my-table>tbody>tr').click(function(ev)
  {
    if(ev.target.tagName !== 'INPUT')
      $(this).find('>td input[type=checkbox]').prop('checked', true);
  })
