Please correct me if I m wrong

2004-03-22 Thread Bhardwaj, Sharod
Execution of html:checkbox name=mailSent property=mailSent value=Sharad tag :

name - Used to get value of the checkbox once the form is submitted.
property - used to map the status, i.e. whether the checkbox shd be Yes or No, 
to the bean property.
value - value of the checkbox.

if I m right then is it necessary to specify the name and property with the 
literals ? Please explain as this is eating my head out. Please don't refer me to 
Jakarta site as I couldn't figure out anything from there.

The place to ask questions like this is the USER list.

The thing with checkboxes is that the browsers do not submit them if they are not 
checked. If the checkbox input is there, it was checked. If the checkbox is not in the 
request, then it is not present.

Typically people will represent checkboxes with a boolean that defaults to false. So 
if they are checked, then they are set to true.

But do not post any follow questions here. Post to the USER list instead.
