I haven't had the chance to look at Struts' source code yet but I think it's there so the action class can tell the value of checkbox submission to set the value of the corresponding field. The value 'on' of the checkbox is submitted only if the checkbox is 'checked'. I could be wrong. (I noticed that hidden field too when I used the checkbox. If you noticed, the tags reference saids 'name' is optional. But if you omit it, you'll get null exception. ) Regards, Tommy --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@struts.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@struts.apache.org
