looping checkbox values..

i have a form which has checkboxes. it looks something like:

<form action="../queries/entrymanage.php" method="POST">
<input type="checkbox" name="checkbox" value="1'">
<input type="checkbox" name="checkbox" value="2">
<input type="checkbox" name="checkbox" value="3">
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="show selected">
</form>

and i'm having trouble figuring out how to loop the values of the "checked" checkboxes on the entrymanage.php page. yeah.. alright. any help is appreciated.

is this what you mean?
<form action="../queries/entrymanage.php" method="POST">
<?php
for($i=1$i<4;$i++){
echo '<input type="checkbox" name="checkbox[]" value="'.$i.'">';
}
?>
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="show selected">
</form>

here is an example of what I think you are asking:

page1:

Code:

<form name="theform" method="post" action="page2.html">
<input type="checkbox" name="val[]" value="line1">line1
<input type="checkbox" name="val[]" value="line2">line2
<input type="checkbox" name="val[]" value="line3">line3
<input type="checkbox" name="val[]" value="line4">line4
<br><br>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit">

page2.html:

PHP:

<?php

foreach($_POST['val'] as $selected) {
    echo($selected);
}

?>
