<div>Actually you never really know what is
going to happen in validation. So many modules can do funky
things. A lot of times the multi-step type forms handle the
rebuild through a submit callback. <br>
<br>
There's another option here as well, depending upon the criteria
that has to be met, and that is using the #states system. You can
see an example here:<br>

you should be able to alter the form in the validation

in hook_node_validate is $form_state['rebuild'] = true; What

<p class="MsoNormal">The checkboxes have to be added in
the form creation stage, so in either hook_form or
hook_form_alter. Then in the hook_validate, set a
variable on $form_state['storage'] and set
$form_state['rebuild'] = TRUE; and check in your
hook_form or hook_form_alter for your
$form_state['storage'] setting, and if set then add
your checkboxes.
<br>
<br>
I suggest looking at the form_example_wizard in the
examples module, as that's basically what you are
after, even though it's not a typical multi-step
wizard you are after, the logic is still the same.

that the checkboxes field is added via
