Checkbox Action Event

Looking for some help with checkbox(switch type) that I have put in PHP. These checkbox are created dynamically with data received from a MySQL Database. The checkbox is loaded on the page depending on the condition of the checkbox placed on the database.

Now, I need help to build a code that perform some action like writing back into another database table everytime this checkbox is actioned; i.e. its inital state can be :checked or left blank(unchecked) and each of these checkbox have an ID or value on them from database. But any action that takes place either from blank to :checked or from :checked to blank, it needs to trigger an action for that particular actioned checkbox only.

Would need help on this as PHP please.

My Code Looks like this for a checkbox:

echo "<input type='checkbox' class='input-swtoggle' name='switch-box' ";
$lightStatus = $row->light_status;
if ($lightStatus == "1") {
   echo "checked>";
}
else{
   echo ">";
}

PS: I did try alot Googling and on Stackoverflow, but none of them are helping for the above condition.
