Scripting - Multiple Checkbox Variables - Help required

I am having a script with multiple settings. Currently, I am presenting this settings in separate prompts - inputselect with checkbox
$g_rating = "1|2|+3|+4|5" ;
$rating = inputselect("Display files with ratings", $g_rating , |, 2, );
$options = "Green|+Yellow|Blue" ;
$cat = inputselect ("Choose Categories", $options, "|", 2,);
$current = "+Consider Ratings|Modified Recently|Consider Labels" ;
$setting = inputselect ("Settings", $current, "|", 2, , , , "Settings");
I trust this can be consolidated into a single html form. Any help with presenting this in a single form and separating the output would be great.

Thanks Highend. It helped me and managed to get in working.
Thanks Sammay for working on this. Will check your code and update mine accordingly.
