That is improper syntax. You are literally telling the interpeter:

For Each cid in the Form Collection variable chk

next

What you should be doing is:

For each item in Request.Form
Response.Write(Request.Form(item))
Next

I will only tell you how to do it, not do it for you.
Unless, of course, you want to hire me to do work for you.

This is the code of my first page where the checkboxes are

Code:

<table>
<tr>
<td><input type="checkbox" name=chk[1] value=1></td>
</tr>

<tr>
<td><input type="checkbox" name=chk[2] value=2></td>
</tr>


<tr>
<td><input type="checkbox" name=chk[3] value=3></td>
</tr>

</table>

BTW, your code is generating the following error

Error 500

Setting up logic to determine what item you are on in the Forms Collection is somewhat rudementary? I would use a SELECT CASE to determine which variable gets what value.

hEY SIMPLE YA

Have the name of all checkboxes as same

Code:

<form method=post>
<input type="checkbox" name=check1 value="the first value">
<input type="checkbox" name=check1 value="the second value">
<input type="checkbox" name=check1 value="the third value">
<input type="checkbox" name=check1 value="the fourth value">
<input type="checkbox" name=check1 value="the fifth value">
<input type="checkbox" name=check1 value="the sizth value">
</form>

<%
if request.servervariables("REQUEST_METHOD")="POST" then

strData=request.form.item("check1")
strArr=split(strData,",")

for lIntI= 0 to ubound(strArr)
' Print each and every checked value
response.write strArr(lintI)
next

end IF
%>
