Hello,
If you are not using validators then when the checkbox is NOT checked
the variable privatebox will NOT be passed into the method so you
probably want to set a default value, preferably False. But when the
checkbox is checked the variable privatebox should be equal to the
string "on" which evaluates to True. So the following code should
work:
@expose()
def uploadfile(self, upload_file, file, privatebox=False):
if privatebox:
#Do something when its True
else:
#Do something when its False
Tell me if it still doesn't work.
