In your ActionForm reset() method, set the checkbox value to false. Struts will set the value to true if the box is checked.
If you are using DynaForms, you will need to extend it and override the reset() method. To populate the checkbox initially, you need to instantiate and populate the form bean and place it in the appropraite context. For more details, see: http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/faqs/newbie.html#prepopulate http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/faqs/newbie.html#checkbox -Kevin --- Bj�rn T Johansen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Yes, but to clarify... > I am showing a jsp page with values read from a > database.
