Once it worked, but now I am lost. I want to save checkboxes so I have a form like:

Code:
&lt;form method="POST" action="somehwere.php"&gt;

&lt;input type="checkbox" name="id_categories[]" value="1"&gt; option1<br/>

&lt;input type="checkbox" name="id_categories[]" value="2"&gt; option2<br/>

&lt;input type="checkbox" name="id_categories[]" value="3"&gt; option3<br/>

&lt;input type="submit"&gt;

&lt;/form&gt;

It seems I cannot read the values anymore when posted. I cannot access the data with:

Code:
$this->input->post('id_categories');

or

$_POST['id_categories']

even when I do:

echo "<pre>".print_r($_POST,1)."</pre>";

I only see the word 'array' where my checkbox array should be.
