I have to be honest, I don't understand what you are doing. Why would you be using 3 check boxes with the same name, but different values? How would you repopulate the form if you had to? "Name=1?" Which Name? I think you mean radio buttons, but then you would only be storing the selected value.

Are you sure you don't mean to have 3 different names for those check boxes? In which case you need to normalize the table and use 3 columns, one column for each (not a good practice to place more than one value in a column, especially if you have to parse it when you retrieve it later).

Sorry if I'm missing anything.
