I’m trying to create a contact form with 3 different questions each with a different set of checkboxes. The form works fine but the data I receive from the form displays the same values for the first set of checkboxes.
How to get my form to return different values for the different sets of checkboxes.
Here’s my HTML code:
<form method=“POST” action="…/sponsor/sponapp.php">
