There is a :multiple option, if that's what you need? It's hard to understand exactly what you want

    check_box("puppy", "commands", {:multiple => true}, "sit", nil)
    check_box("puppy", "commands", {:multiple => true}, "fetch", nil)
    check_box("puppy", "commands", {:multiple => true}, "roll_over", nil)

Your solution can save data with multiple array. I also would like to know if I checked Apple and Orange in registration form, it also checked Apple and Orange in edit form untile I change checkbox uncheck.
