Description:
------------
I should be able to do the following and get back an array:
$form->addElement('checkbox', 'vegetable1', array('value' => 1), array('label' => 'carrot'));
$form->addElement('checkbox', 'vegetable2', array('value' => 2), array('label' => 'pea'));
$form->addElement('checkbox', 'vegetable3', array('value' => 3), array('label' => 'bean'));
It might be a good idea to have an option to say that this is what is being requested.

Proper code:
$form->addElement('checkbox', 'vegetable[]', array('value' => 1), array('label' => 'carrot'));
$form->addElement('checkbox', 'vegetable[]', array('value' => 2), array('label' => 'pea'));
$form->addElement('checkbox', 'vegetable[]', array('value' => 3), array('label' => 'bean'));

PHP doesn't work that way, you should use vegetable[1], vegetable[2], vegetable[3] as element
names instead. This can also be done with a group container :
$vegetable = $form->addGroup('vegetable' ...);
$vegetable->addCheckbox('1' ...);
$vegetable->addCheckbox('2' ...);
$vegetable->addCheckbox('3' ...); [2009-11-23 02:01 UTC] avb

Bertrand, the original request (as seen on pear-general) dealt with checkboxes named 'box[]', Alain just copied the wrong example to the feature request from email there. [2009-11-23 02:12 UTC] avb
