The check boxs all have the same name so they get returned as an array. The value of the check box would be the cell name. So @cells = $cgi->param("checkbox_name") would then return an array of cell names that are checked.

Hi Eric, That was wonderfull. I could get the number of cells that were checked. But It should be exciting, if I could get the lables of the cells that were all checked.

foreach my $cell (@rows){
        split(/,/);
            
    print $cgi->td("$cell");
         for(my $i= 1;$i<=12;$i++){
             print $cgi->td($cgi->checkbox(-name=>'checked', -values=>
+["ON"], -default=>'',-label=>"$cell$i")) ;
         }
    print $cgi->Tr();
    
   }

What I say is I like to have the labels, like A1, D1, E1, if they are checked.these are the labels for each cells. THe code you suggested gives 'on'(which is the default) when a checkbox is checked.Any options?
thanks.

I suggest you actualy read the answers you get. Instead of using On as a value, use "A1".
