Without you showing your code and HTML it's a bit hard to help you.
Here's an HTML file
<html>
<head><title>title</title></head>
<body>
<form action="" method="post">
submission 1
<label><input type="checkbox" name="id1" value="0" checked>No change</label>
<label><input type="checkbox" name="id1" value="1">Ban</label>
<label><input type="checkbox" name="id1" value="2">Approve</label>
<label><input type="checkbox" name="id1" value="3">Delete</label>
<br>
submission 42
<label><input type="checkbox" name="id42" value="0" checked>No change</label>
<label><input type="checkbox" name="id42" value="1">Ban</label>
<label><input type="checkbox" name="id42" value="2">Approve</label>
<label><input type="checkbox" name="id42" value="3">Delete</label>
<br>
<input type="submit">
</form>
</body>
</html>
When the server receives this form it will have $_POST['id1'] and
$_POST['id42'] set to one of 0, 1, 2, or 3 (unless the client chose to
lie to the server).
You can check the keys and values with
<?php
foreach ($_POST as $key=>$value) {
if (preg_match('/^id(\d+)$/', $key, $mat)) {
switch ((int)$value) {
case 0: /* void */ break;
case 1: submission_ban($mat[1]); break;
case 2: submission_approve($mat[1]); break;
case 3: submission_delete($mat[1]); break;
default: /* client is lying */ break;
}
}
}
?>
Happy Coding :)
