Here's my idea: Create a bean that has multiple Boolean fields, with each corresponding to a checkbox you might want to display.
In the action that loads data for this page, process the user's role and set the bean's Boolean values accordingly. Store the bean so that the jsp can read it. For all the checkboxes, the jsp will read the bean and display only the checkboxes that have a corresponding true value. In the action that saves the data from this page, process only those checkboxes that were displayed.

What I have are members who belong to professional groups and sub-groups. E.g., Group A with sub-groups A-1, A-2, A-3, A-4. Group B with sub-groups B-1, B-2, B-3 Group C with sub-groups C-1, C-2, C-3, C-4, C-5, C-6 etc. web site users make multiple selections among groups. And all members in those groups will receive an e-mail message. I can display a check box for every single "sub-group". And give each "group" a "select all" check box. All I have to take care are the checked "sub-groups". The challege comes as the "roles" of the web site users are introduced. According to the role of the web site user, I have to display certain groups (not all the groups) and certain sub-groups (not all sub-groups within a group) to him/her. How do I disply groups and their sub-groups under such a condition? __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Take Yahoo! Mail with you!
