Hi, Under the DefaultPopulationStrategy, 'checked' is used when there is no corresponding request parameter and the corresponding action bean property is null.
If your webapp uses BeanFirstPopulationStrategy and pre-actions, 'checked' will be ignored in most cases (please see doc *1). In this case, you will have to provide the default in action bean or somewhere if you want to check some checkboxes by default. *1) http://stripes.sourceforge.net/docs/current/javadoc/net/sourceforge/stripes/tag/BeanFirstPopulationStrategy.html Regards, Iwao 2012/2/8 Chris Johnson <johns...@gmail.com>: > Can someone explain exactly when checkboxes are rendered checked.. > I've done some playing around but it's still unclear to me how exactly > they should work: > > <stripes:checkbox name="item.id" value="A" checked="A"/> not checked ? > <stripes:checkbox name="item.id" value="A" checked="B"/> not checked ? > > The documentation says: If the value of the checkbox is found to equal or be > contained by the 'checked' object then the checkbox will default to > rendering as checked. > > I find that if the value of the checkbox is found to be > equal to the value in name then the checkbox is checked.. > > Can someone explain how i should be using this ? > > Thanks, > ..Chris > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Keep Your Developer Skills Current with LearnDevNow! > The most comprehensive online learning library for Microsoft developers > is just $99.99!
