ok I've changed it the SELECT to CHECKED but it had no effect ...
<input type="checkbox" name="avail" value="" <? if ($avail == 'n') { echo 'CHECKED';
}?>>
I've also tried it with a "n" value so it reads like
<input type="checkbox" name="avail" value="n" <? if ($avail == 'n') { echo 'CHECKED';
}?>> but that didn't have any luck either ... is there anything else i can do?
