Hey All,
My need is to create a easy approval process for what could be a handful of
subscribers up to 1000's of subscribers.
The idea thus far is to create a table that has (and needs) only a few
columns of information:
RecordID (hidden) | Approved [checkbox] | Subscriber Name (read_only
Why not get rid of the hidden field and assign the record id as the value of
the checkboxes. When you submit the form (or serialize it) only the checked
items will be passed to the server.
For example:
input name=ApprovedSubscribers value=123 type=checkbox
checked=checked/ Joe Cool
input
Funny, I had just figured out what you had suggested for getting rid of the
hidden field and making the record id the value.
The problem is that ONLY the checked items get passed... if someone is
unchecked their approval is revoked so I need to update the table for
that as well.

Yes, that's the nature of checkboxes and radio buttons. If you need the
value submitted in all circumstances, then you're back to the hidden field
implementation. Problem with that approach is that it won't work if the user
has javascript disabled.
A few options for event listeners
I'm now wondering if the onchange event will allow me to set the value of
the hidden field BEFORE the form.observer fires the ajax call I'll test
that tomorrow... My thinking is that I'll set the value of a hidden field
to on/off and the name of the field to the record #.
