   Hi All,

   How do i add the data from a checkbox as a meta key?? I tried googling alot , most of the google results pointed towards creating a meta box in the admin area. What i want is simple form processing if the user selects multiple value and these values are stored as part of the meta key for a given post. :P

   <form method = "post" action = "ppp.php">
   <input type = "checkbox" name = "mycheck[]" value = "orange">ORANGE
   <input type = "checkbox" name = "mycheck[]" value = "apple">APPLE
   <input type = "checkbox" name = "mycheck[]" value = "banana">BANANA
   <input type = "checkbox" name = "mycheck[]" value = "pear">PEAR
   <input type = "checkbox" name = "mycheck[]" value = "gauva">GUAVA
   <input type = "submit" name = "send" value = "SEND">
   </form>

   i tried the following but don't work..

   Do i need to do some serializing??

   add_post_meta($published_id, 'META_mycheck', $mycheck, true);

   And later do i extract the data using the get_post_data?? Do i need some foreach loop?

   Thanks, in advance..
