# Displaying form information (checkboxes)

 * I currently have a form built using this plugin and it is sending the data to
   a SQL database. Everything seems to be working fine except for the display of
   the information coming from checkboxes. When I pull the form information into
   a table on a WordPress page, any item where I use check boxes the information
   displays a bit odd in the database. For instance if I choose “item1” and “item2”
   for a question with answers built with checkboxes the result I get sent to my
   database is something like:
 * a:2:{i:0;s:3:”item1″;i:1;s:12:”item2″;}
 * Is there a way to get this to display just as comma separated values for checkboxes
   like “item1, item2”?

 * From a bit of research it looks like the form is shooting out a serialized array.
   Is there a function or something under “form processors” that can help output
   the checkbox items differently or is this something I need to create a custom
   script for?
