Thanks d for your help.

I first tried to set it up on the form as follow:

[set mv_data_enable]1[/set]
[tag flag write]evaluationdb[/tag]
[set NewWeb]
  $CGI->{search_features} =~ s/\0+/ /g;
         return;
[if type=explicit compare="[error all=1 show_var=1 keep=1]"]
mv_nextpage=@@MV_PAGE@@
[else]
mv_nextpage=ord/send_feedback
[/else]
[/if]

}
[/set]

<FORM ACTION="[process]" METHOD="POST">
<INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN NAME="mv_data_table"    VALUE="feedbackdb">
<INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN NAME="mv_data_key"      VALUE="username">
<INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN NAME="mv_data_function" VALUE="insert">
<INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN NAME="mv_nextpage"      VALUE=@@MV_PAGE@@>
<INPUT TYPE=hidden NAME=mv_click VALUE="NewWeb">
<INPUT TYPE="HIDDEN" NAME="mv_data_fields" .............>

<my form goes here>

checkboxes goes in here in format:
 <INPUT TYPE="CHECKBOX" NAME="search_features" VALUE="Keyword" [checked
name=search_features multiple=1 value="Keyword"]> Keyword<BR>
etc........

<end of form>

For some reason this didn't work. There is no errors on error log bu
still I can not owk out what is wrong with it. I can still can see only
first entry in my table when I look trough admin interface.

Then I tried to set it up trough mv_metadata table.

I created new entry, set it up to be:

my_tablename::search_features

widget type as checkbox


filter null_to_comma


This is not working either.

So please could you tell me what I am doing wrong in here.

Thanks
