> I have a form, one field of which offers multiple checkboxes.
>
> The checkboxes are displayed from master list of values.  Let's say there
> are 6 colors..
>
> For each value that exists in a related table, I am able to get the check
> boxes to appear checked. Let's say that 2 are checked.  So far so good.

> Master List             Red     Blue    Green   Yellow  Brown   Black
>
> Related table:          Red(checked)                    Yellow(checked)
>
> So here's the challenge.
>
> When the form is submitted with different boxes checked...
>
> What do I need to do to record checkbox changes, as part of an Edit
> operation for the entire form in fx.php:
>        - Remove a checkmark (should delete a related record)
>        - Add a new checkmark (should add a related record).
>
> Do I need to create a separate instance  reiteratively comparing the Posted
> checkmarks with an array of master value lists.  Sounds clumsy.
>
> Any suggestions?
