i have an email box on my site. It has 2 input text boxes, name and email. It also has a few check boxes that i made. Now here is the problem. The two input boxes work just fine, however, i need it to also send a variable to my php file when a box is checked.

Quite simply, all i really need to do is send a variable to php that is NOT a text field
