Question : CGI - create checkbox and store value

I need to create a simple cgi script with some checkboxes in it but not getting it to work.

How can I create a list with each item having a checkbox, then if the checkbox is checked
for any of the items push that item to a variable?

Such as:

Dog
Cat
Bird


Have a check box by each of the items above then if checked pused to a array so I can then
do something with the items in the array.


Thanks,
