 * Hi all,
    i’m building a new plugin and i’ve also created an admin page to easily
   set its options. Options are stored as an array in a single row in wp_options
   table. I’m checked two “strange” issues with checkboxes:
 * 1)if the checkboxes is uncheked the example pair
    [plugname_option] => 1 is removed
   from the array instead of being given value “0” like [plugname_option] => 0
 * 2)checkboxes value are inserted as strings and not as integers into the DB so
   i have:
    s:15:”plugname_option”;s:1:”1″
 * The checkbox code is like the following:
    <input type=”checkbox” name=”plug_options[
   plugname_option]” value=”1″ <?php check_option(‘plugname_option’); ?>/>
 * Thanks in advance for your replies.
