As long as the <input type=checkbox....> tags are within your form tags, it's
really up to you how you want that to appear. You can break them up into 2 or 3
column rows maybe.

If you want to pre-check selected boxes, you can use PHP to determine whatever
condition you created, and add a string of text like " checked" to your selected
input tag. This can apply to whether you had i check box or several hundred, so
quantity shouldn't be a factor.
