Hi,
I'm having some issues with checkboxes. When I submit the form and the email is sent, the check box area is empty. There is no information listed. When I tried to change the code, it would only show one of the options and not all that have been picked. Now when email is received it says Services Required: Array.

I'd appreciate any help!

Code is below:

Name: <input type="text" name="Name" size="50" class="name">  

 Business/Organisation: <input type="text" name="BusinessName" size="50" class="BusinessName">  

 Contact Number: <input type="text" name="ContactPhone" size="50">  
*Email: <input type="text" name="Email" size="50">   
                Services Required (tick as many as required):                               

<input type="checkbox" name="ServicesRequired" value="CustomWebsiteDesign" /> Custom Website Design  

 <input type="checkbox" name="ServicesRequired" value="Ecommerce" /> E-Commerce  
<input type="checkbox" name="ServicesRequired" value="TemplateDesign" /> Template Design  

              <input type="checkbox" name="ServicesRequired" value="HostingDomain" /> Hosting/Domain  

                <input type="checkbox" name="ServicesRequired" value="WebDevelopment" /> Web Development  

                  

    <input type="checkbox" name="ServicesRequired" value="Photography" /> Photography  

  

 Are there any sites you want your website to be similar to?  <input type="text" name="SimilarSites" size="50" >   

34 Will own artwork be supplied? (Logos, images etc) <input type="text" name="OwnArtworkSupplied" size="50">  

   

36 Will you want to update the website content yourself? <input type="text" name="UpdateOwnContent" size="50">  

  

38 Do you have a time frame? <input type="text" name="TimeFrame" size="50">  

 

40 Do you have a budget you need to work with? <input type="text" name="Budget" size="50">  

          

 <textarea rows="8" cols="40" name="Details"></textarea>   

    

   <input type="submit" class="submitquotebutton" name="submit" value="submit!">  

       

    </form>

function show_error($myError)

    <b>Please correct the following error:</b><br />
    <?php echo $myError; ?>

<?php
exit();
}
?>

pretty sure you have to make your names an array.

<input type="checkbox" name="ServicesRequired[]" value="CustomWebsiteDesign" /> Custom Website Design
