PHP CHECKBOX array problem

Question

I have a list of checkboxes that you would see in most email clients (you check the box, click Delete and then delete the email).

<input type="checkbox" value="yes" name="box[]" />

The problem is here ...

print_r($_POST['box']);//Returns nothing at all ...

var_dump($_POST['box']);// returns null...

I was reading something about global registers which php5 disabled for security reasons.

Does anyone know what my options are?

Just found out by playing with meanings.

Make sure you check the enctype attribute on the tag

it should be <form method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">

Hope someone else finds this helpful.
