Why not name each check box the same name and use a different value???
<CFOUTPUT QUERY="MetList">
<TR>
<TD><INPUT TYPE="checkbox" NAME="MetCheck"
VALUE="#Met_ID#"></TD>
<TD>#Met_ID#</TD>
<TD>#FirstName# #LastName#</TD>
</TR>
</CFOUTPUT>
You'll then be presented with a comma separated list containing all your
checked boxes...
Do a ListLen(form.MetCheck, ",") for the number of items checked.
Just a thought.

Subject: Count check boxes?
I have a list of 67 names each with a unique ID. I've given each check box a
corresponding ID. I just want to count the number of boxes checked and
output that number for now.
If you want to know what a wobber is, go to www.wob-l.org at your own risk.
Thanks!
