Checkbox - multiple values with same name

Question

I have a cfoutput from a query and within that I have a
<cfinput type="checkbox" name ="GroupID" value
="#Query.GroupID#"> to input the GroupID value from any checked
checkbox.

It passes all of the values from the checked boxes, but
without the comma between the values. I end up with one string with
"GroupIDGroupIDGroupID". I am 99% sure that this worked on CF7, but
am now running CF8 and Dreamweaver 8.

From what I've seen in a bunch of forums, this procedure
should create "GroupID,GroupID,GroupID".

Any ideas?

Problem discovered. Turns out that one of our housekeeping modules was doing a CFSET to NumbersOnly on the GroupID fields because they must be numeric, which of course removed the commas. I changed the CFSET to do a StripAllBut(form.Group.ID, "1234567890,",false) and it works fine.

Amazing how a change to fix one problem can come back to haunt you months later.
