DELETE MULTIPLE FIELDs USING CHECKBOX. NOT DELETING FROM DB. WHAT AM I CODING WRONG?!

<tr> <th><input type="submit" name="delete" id="delete" value="DELETE"></th> <th>name</th> <th>comp</th> </tr>

<?php $query=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM riv"); $count=mysql_num_rows($query); while($riv=mysql_fetch_assoc($query)) {

   echo"<tr>";
   echo"<td><input type=checkbox name=checkbox[] id=checkbox[] value=<?php echo $riv[id]; ?></td>";
   echo"<td>$riv[name]</td>";
   echo"<td>$riv[comp]</td>";
   echo"</tr>";

}
?>

<?php // Check if delete button active, start this if(isset($_POST['delete'])){ for($i=0;$i<$count;$i++){ if(isset($_POST['checkbox[]'])){ $del_id = $id[$i]; echo $del_id; $sql = "DELETE FROM riv WHERE id='$del_id'"; $result = mysql_query($sql);} } }
?>
