You just need a way to match the checkbox with the textarea. I would just run a counter when you create the form.

$output = qq~ <form><table> ~;

$counter = 1;

foreach $result (@$returned_results) {
    $checkname = 'include_' . $counter;
    $textname  = 'summary_' . $counter;
    $urlname   = 'url_' . $counter;
    $output .= qq~
        <tr>
            <td><input type="checkbox" name="$checkname"></td>
            <td><textarea name="$textname"> yadda yadda </textarea></t
+d>
            <td><input type="hidden" name="$urlname"></td>
        </tr>
    ~;
    
    $counter++;
}

$output .= qq~ </table></form> ~;

Now when you have a checked 'include_3' and 'include_87' you know that 'url_3' and 'summary_3' and 'url_87' and 'summary_87' need to go in the database.
