Tracy: Thanks for the response. I was afraid that was the case. I did notice that the checks don't remain if you scroll. I'll have to come up with a better way to do this. I wanted the user to be able to check 30 items in a list of 100 and after checking the last item and clicking on a submit button the database would be updated. I did not want to have to call the CFC to update the database after each check.
