How to get $_POST values from multiples checkboxes

Set the name in the form to check_list[] and you will be able to access all the checkboxes as an array($_POST['check_list'][]).

Here's a little sample as requested:

<form action="test.php" method="post">
<input type="checkbox" name="check_list[]" value="value 1">
<input type="checkbox" name="check_list[]" value="value 2">
<input type="checkbox" name="check_list[]" value="value 3">
<input type="checkbox" name="check_list[]" value="value 4">
<input type="checkbox" name="check_list[]" value="value 5">
<input type="submit" />
</form>
<?php
if(!empty($_POST['check_list'])) {
    foreach($_POST['check_list'] as $check) {
            echo $check; //echoes the value set in the HTML form for each checked checkbox.
                         //so, if I were to check 1, 3, and 5 it would echo value 1, value 3, value 5.
                         //in your case, it would echo whatever $row['Report ID'] is equivalent to.
    }
}
?>

How to: Check checkbox state with jQuery

jQuery 1.6+

Use the new .prop() function:

$('.myCheckbox').prop('checked', true);
$('.myCheckbox').prop('checked', false);

jQuery 1.5 and below

The .prop() function is not available, so you need to use .attr().

To check the checkbox (by setting the value of the checked attribute) do

$('.myCheckbox').attr('checked','checked');

and for un-checking (by removing the attribute entirely) do

$('.myCheckbox').removeAttr('checked');

Any version of jQuery

If you're working with just one element, it will always be fastest to use DOMElement.checked = true.  The benefit to using the .prop() and .attr() functions is that they will operate on all matched elements.

// Assuming an event handler on a checkbox
if (this.checked)
