Checkboxes are a little different than other form fields in that nothing is sent unless the box is checked. You must assign a value attribute to the checkbox and whatever that value is, is what will go to the next page, database, etc.
Here are a couple of examples.
Suppose you are selling t-shirts and you have several checkboxes for the color, a box named red, a box named blue and a box named green. The value of each checkbox is True. If the user checks each box, then you have three form field values of true that are sent to the next step.
The other example is almost the same except instead of the boxes being named, red, blue and green, they are all named color and instead of the values being True, the value of one is red, another blue and the last green. If again the user checks all three boxes, what is sent to the next page is a comma-delimited string that looks like this:
red,blue,green
I suspect this may not directly answer your question, but may give you some insight into how checkboxes behave and help you do what you need. If not, feel free to clarify your needs.

I see what you mean.But I can't give the fields a certien name because I don't know how many fields I have....
I was thinking of your second example, but in your example, how do I read the variables in my other page? Do your have any other suggestion for me how do send some variable to another page?

The result is the word "software". My problem is , how do I recive the data from the first page? for example, when I am sending a textbox, I give it a name (something like Firstname) and at the second page I am writing Name=request.form("Firstname"), So what Shild I write at the second page for the Checkbox?

quote:
We need to confirm what is happening on that second page
What happens when you do :
<%=response.write("software")%>
In Spooky's reply three steps up, shouldn't the correct code be:
<%=response.write(software)%> --ie, with quotes removed?
With the quotes, you're telling ASP to write the word "software" and that's exactly what it did but that wasn't the intention. I think he meant for the ASP code to write the value of the variable "software" to see what's being passed to the second page.
Try the corrected code in your second page, then post back what was sent.
