[MTOS-dev] multiple checkboxes, app->param

[Jay Allen]

What Mark said.  You can search the MT code base for the following  
which is demonstrative of this:

	my @ids = $app->param("id");

Also, when in doubt, do a "perldoc extlib/CGI".  The POD is huge but  
extremely informative about features that are available to you via the  
venerable CGI module.

Also, wrt Data::Dumper, you should try to always pass it references or  
objects and not arrays or hashes (e.g.  Dumper(\@uris) ).  Also, I  
would never use MT::Log for this because it's post-processed. Instead  
print to STDERR or Log4mt.
