If you are only allowing the user to select 1 checkbox, you just need to pass the value of $id. If you are letting them select as many as you want, since you are using an array, just write all the values like so, $id[1], $id[2] etc.
Have a variable like "$checkbox" and then just say "$checkbox = $id[1] "," $id[2] "," $id[3] and so forth. When writing to the database, just use $checkbox and it will write the string "val1,val2,val3". When you want to call the individual numbers out of the database later, use the explode function to get each number.
