Hi Chris I think this is browser behaviour: if the checkbox is unticked it won't send anything at all.
And according to the Mason book if you declare an argument in an %args block without a default value then that means it is required. So, if the user does not check the box the checkbox key/value is not sent at all and you get your error. Maybe if you define a default for it: <%args> $m => 'x' </%args> Then you can tell: if 'v' it was checked. If 'x' not checked (and no error) regards Justin E. enquir...@mms-oxford.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "ch" <ch_m...@gmx.at> To: <mason-users@lists.sourceforge.net> Sent: Tuesday, December 22, 2009 6:01 PM Subject: [Mason] checkbox in mason > hi! > > I have problems with mason and a form with one single checkbox.
