I cant figure this out… Need help.
I am creating a form that emails the results. The issue i am having is with the array that captures the check boxes.
I can echo the results but when i try to email them i only get a value of “array”
Here is a snip of the form im having an issue with.
[code]
| 2 Piece Bathroom |
|
| 3 Piece Bathroom |
|
| Gas Fireplace |
|
| Pub Style sit at Bar |
|
| Walk-up bar |
|
| Office |
|
| Recreation Area |
|
</table>[/code]
