   I want the user to be able to exclude pages from the navigation bar by simply ticking them off.

   I've created a list off all the menu items with a checkbox next to them like this:

   echo "<form method='POST' action=''>";
   wp_list_pages(array("link_before" => "<input type='checkbox' name='radio' value='$post_id' />", "title_li" => ""));
   echo "<input type='submit' name='radio_submit' />
   </form>";

   Now I need to be able to somehow have the page id inside the value of the checkbox. So when the user hits submit then the page id's get inserted into the $exclude variable in the navigation bar so the pages get excluded.

   Any ideas how I can fetch the id's from the generated list of navi items in the admin panel?

   I figured that the wp_list_pages function has a $current_page variable.

   Is there any way I could fetch it out of it?
   

   global $wp_query;
   		if ( is_page() || is_attachment() || $wp_query->is_posts_page )
   			$current_page = $wp_query->get_queried_object_id();
   		$output .= walk_page_tree($pages, $r['depth'], $current_page, $r);

   I managed to do it this way by following an example in the documentation:

   <form method='POST' action=''>
   <select name="page-dropdown">
    <option value="">
   <?php echo attribute_escape(__('Select page')); ?></option>
    <?php
     $pages = get_pages();
     foreach ($pages as $pagg) {
     	$option = '<option value="'. $pagg->ID .'">';
   	$option .= $pagg->post_title;
   	$option .= '</option>';
   	echo $option;
     }
    ?>
   </select>
   <input type='submit' name='drop_submit' />
   </form>
