+ * @uses string $vars['internalname'] The name of the input fields (Forced to an array by appending [])
+ * @uses array $vars['options'] An array of strings representing the label => option for the each checkbox field
+ * @uses string $vars['internalid'] The id for each input field. Optional (Only use this with a single value.)
+ * @uses string $vars['default'] The default value to send if nothing is checked. Optional, defaults to 0.
+ * @uses bool $vars['disabled'] Make all input elements disabled. Optional.
+ * @uses string $vars['value'] The current value. Optional.
