Note the bracket ([]) characters at the end of the checkbox names.
i think... :o)
Your solution would work, however if it's not selected the script will generate a Notice. Not too much of a problem, but if you check to see if it was set, you'd be better off ;)
if([url=http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.isset.php]isset[/url]($_POST['checkbox'])) {
echo 'Set!';
} else {
echo 'Not set!';
}
