Perhaps this doesn't address the rest of your issue (frankly, I couldn't
determine your problem from your email), but the way we handle checkboxes
is to add a hidden field with the same name as the checkbox, but set its
value to false (checkboxes always have a value of "true" for us). Then,
we use request.getParameterValues("myCheckBox") and take the 0th item in
the returned array: this will equal "true" if the box was checked, "false"
otherwise.
