Use an additional hidden input, with the same name as the checkbox and a
value of 0. In almost all cases you'll want the hidden input to appear in
the source before the actual checkbox.
When the form is submitted, if the checkbox has been checked, it's value
will override the hidden input of the same name. If it hasn't been checked
the hidden input (with its value of 0) will be in the $_POST array.
AFAIK this is the only way to do it as unchecked checkboxes are not passed
to POST at all.
