If a checkbox is "unchecked" no field name is sent as a variable. Check for
it's existence either like the below example, or by using CFPARAM on the
action page with a default of "no" then check for its existence and skip
the <CFELSE> block
<td><INPUT type="Checkbox" NAME="field1" value="yes"checked="yes"></td>
<cfif isdefined("form.field1")>
<CFSET field1 = "yes">
<CFELSE>
<CFSET field1 = "no">
</CFIF>
<cfquery name="qInsert" datasource="landlord2">
insert into table1
(Field1)
values
('#Field1#')
</cfquery>
