[mv] Using checkboxes to write multiple values to one field

Does anyone know how to use checkboxes to write multiple values to one 
arbitrary database field with minivend 3.1x?

As an example:

<input type=checkbox name=myfield value="A "> Option A
<input type=checkbox name=myfield value="B "> Option B
<input type=checkbox name=myfield value="C "> Option C

...if the user checks all three of these on the form, a form processing 
program which follows HTML conventions should interpret the submission as 
"myfield=A B C ".  It appears that minivend is not doing this; instead, it 
is using the first received name/value pair and ignoring the rest, so all 
it sees is "myfield=A ".

I can't find any info on this in the docs or the list archives.  Anyone 
have any ideas?
