# Check Box and Radio Button ‘Array’ syntax

* All text fields and drop down lists successfully inputs the data into salesforce.
* Having trouble with radio buttons or checkboxes only coming through as ‘Array’.
So I tried changing the separator from , to [] and also [#]. The debug email
suggests the information was posted to 3rd party service, but nothing made it
into the ‘description’ field, just the first name, last name, phone, email, lead
type and the rest ignored.
* Can the syntax of the form field be something like ‘vehicle-use[0]’ or something
to carry the value in? I tried this, but then no injection of data is made at
all.
* I’ll add the debug code below.

* That’s a weird one. How do you want it to be passed? If you leave the separator
blank or use a space, it should concatenate the array values to a single text
string — I’m guessing the debug example you posted was from using `[]`? What
does it look like if left blank?
* Relevant code where separator is used:
[https://github.com/zaus/forms-3rdparty-integration/blob/master/forms-3rdparty-integration.php#L571](https://github.com/zaus/forms-3rdparty-integration/blob/master/forms-3rdparty-integration.php#L571)
* If it’s the doubly-nested array values like “purchasing-from” and “vehicle-use”
that are screwing it up, you might try changing the field types in CF7 to a dropdown
or something else so they only provide one value like “make-238”?
* Failing all that, you can write a quick hook to reformat that one value in the
post using either hook […service_filter_post](https://github.com/zaus/forms-3rdparty-integration/blob/master/forms-3rdparty-integration.php#L568)(
before the separator processing) or […service_filter_args](https://github.com/zaus/forms-3rdparty-integration/blob/master/forms-3rdparty-integration.php#L598).
