You can keep the default value for the checkbox field to be "off" in the form
bean. It will be set to "on" only if the checkbox is checked on the JSP.

I've got an html:checkbox in a form and the property is mapped/spelled
correctly to the field/method in the bean. The behavior I am seeing is
that the bean property (a boolean) is not being set based on the state
of the checkbox.
I fired up Ethereal and following the TCP stream from the POST, I can
see the name of the property being passed (
=on) as a
parameter on the request if the checkbox is checked, but if it is not
checked, the parameter doesn't show up at all on the request (I'd
expected
=off) but this might be the reason that Struts
can't set the property if it doesn't know the value....
Obviously, I can issue a request.getParameter(
) and if it
returns null, set the property on the bean myself, but I had hoped
Struts would do this for me...
Anyone run into this before or have any suggestions? Thanks.
