RE: Manually make multiple checkbox?

Right but all that does is give me 1 cleaned row with 3 going across with a
clear after the fieldset. I need each 3 to be 1 div
<div class="my_class"> checkbox 1, 2, and 3 </div>
<div class="my_class"> checkbox 4, 5, and 6 </div>
<div class="my_class"> checkbox 7, 8, and 9 </div>
<div class="my_class"> checkbox 10, empty, empty </div>

The checkbox count is not static so that's why foreach was the idea I came
up with.

I have 3 floating across now as you have yours set up but I want to separate
/ divide the rows with some graphics / lines so its not just a chunk of text
and boxes, that's where the 3 per div / separate next 3 / separate and so on
comes in.

Thanks

Dave

This works for me:

echo $form->select('Options', $optionss, null, array('multiple' =>
'checkbox'));

css:
div.checkbox { margin-bottom:1.5em; float: left; margin-right: 1em;
width:10em;}
fieldset:after
{content:"\0020";display:block;height:0;clear:both;visibility:hidden;overflo
w:hidden;}

The 2nd rule adds some hidden content after the fieldset that is set
to clear the floating divs (so the following content doesn't run into
it).
