Actually, No, it does not populate the array when it's posted, only
contain numbers (although it does have the correct amount of numbers.
Here is my code now. I have the brackets in as you said. :
Cheers
foreach($LangAllResult['data'] as $key=>$LangAllData){
$langRecid = $LangAllData[recid][0];
$vlLanguage = $LangAllData[Language][0];
if(in_array($vlLanguage,$medLanguages)) {
?>
<input type="checkbox" name="vlLanguage[]" checked="checked"
value="<?php $vlLanguage ?>" /><?php echo $vlLanguage ?>;
<?php
} else {
?>
<input type="checkbox" name="vlLanguage[]" value="<?php $vlLanguage
?>" /><?php echo $vlLanguage ?>;
<?php
}
}
?>
