Jeremy, HTML checkBoxes dont send a value when unchecked -- which is probably causing the problem.You should override the reset() method of ActionForm in your class.
In this method, set all your boolean variables in the form to false. The reset(ActionMapping am, HttpServletRequest req) method will be automatically called before populating the ActionForm. Hope this helps.
