Hi Silverstripers,

i created my own contact form following the ssbits tutorial.

This is the ContactForm_method() from the page_Controller

new CheckboxSetField($name = "myField", $title = "myField Description", $source = array(
 "Choise1" => "Choise1", "Choise2" => "Choise2", "Choise3" => "Choise3"))

The email-template is populated and $myField is available and shown in the emails that are send.

When i receive the email $myField is replaced with 'Array( "Choise1" => "Choise1", "Choise2" => "Choise2", "Choise3" => "Choise3")'

When i try to use a flat array ( Array("Choise1", "Choise2", "Choise3")) the first checkbox is allways preselected.

How can i change the output from $myField during population of the email template?
I need an output like: "choise1, choise2, choise3" without any php specific output like Array().

Kind regards
Metin
