Getting somewhere. I have renamed checkboxes to have equal names like you suggested. Also I have used this for query: $langid2[]=$_POST['enabledLanguages']; $langids = implode(',', $langid2); $q='UPDATE language SET enabled= lang_id IN($langids) >0'; The result is that it remembers checked box but deletes others. For instance, I have languages English, German, Croatian, French. If I check English and update all is ok. So on the page load it loads English as checked.

Second update for German checked updates German language but clears English (or any other). How to keep those checked values? – Oct 12 '12 at 13:43 •.

I'm sorry I just don't have time for that. But basically you can pass data from the current script in the same way.

The new script needs a SELECT query reading the current data from the database. This data needs displaying in text boxes so it can be edited. Then a Submit button calls the same scipt but is directed to code that can UPDATE the database first with the new data.

Then the same code that generates the SELECT above query runs again displaying the new data. It can all be done in one script with one form and one submit button. If you make a start I can help.
