    copied!<p>I am currently working on a custom form module in Drupal 6. In this form I am using a checkboxes field with about 10 different options. The problem I seem to be having is that the only output I get from the checkboxes is "array". I have spent a couple hours googling like a mad man, and have found numerous tutorials on how to create checkboxes but none really cover what to do with the data once it is entered.</p> <p>Here is the checkbox code:</p> <pre><code>$form['message_box']['products'] = array( '#type' =&gt; 'checkboxes', '#title' =&gt; t('What services are you interested in ?'), '#options' =&gt; array( 'home_and_auto' =&gt; t('Home &amp; Auto Insurance'), 'auto' =&gt; t('Auto Insurance'), 'home' =&gt; t('Home Insurance'), 'other' =&gt; t('Other Personal Insurance'), 'business' =&gt; t('Business Insurance'), 'farm' =&gt; t('Farm Insurance'), 'life' =&gt; t('Life Insurance'), 'health' =&gt; t('Health Insurance'), 'rv' =&gt; t('Recreational Vehicle Insurance'), 'financial' =&gt; t('Financial Services'), ), '#weight' =&gt; 39 ); </code></pre> <p>I've set a variable for the array </p> <pre><code>$products = $form_state['values']['products']; </code></pre> <p>And the code for the email body: </p> <pre><code> $body = 'New quote request from '.$sender.'&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Email Address :'.$valid_email.'&lt;br&gt;'.'Phone No :'.$phone.'&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;'.'Address :&lt;br&gt;'.$street.'&lt;br&gt;'.$city.', '.$state.'&lt;br&gt;'.$zip.'&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Interested in the following products&lt;br&gt;'.$products.'&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;'.$emessage; </code></pre> <p>Thanks for whatever assistance you can provide.</p>
