I tried to create a hidden input variable and
pass the value, but getParameterValues() returns me
only a single value, while I expect a bunch of values.

As far as I know, checkboxes are supposed to carry unique names. This contrary to radiobuttons. In both cases the getParameterValues() will return only one value. But using getParameterNames() you should be able to loop over all parameters and get the value of each checkbox like that.

Could you please give a code sample (for a group of Checkboxes)?

Err.. in flowscript (JavaScript) you can do something like:

function getRequestParameters() {
        var mynames = cocoon.request.getParameterNames();
        var myname;
        var myparams = new Object();

        while (mynames.hasMoreElements()) {
                myname = mynames.nextElement();
                myparams[myname] = cocoon.request.getParameter(myname);
        }
        
        return myparams;
}

Yes, 2.0.4 is a bit old. I am new to Cocoon and got a bunch
of Cocoon projects to enhance/do bug fixes/support.
Would love to upgrade to 2.1.X, but not sure what is involved.
Is that difficult? Most likely start it early next year (to take advantage of
Lepido).

Hmmm, I am not an expert on that field, but as long as you haven't written a lot of Java code, you will be safe enough. Component interfaces may have changed a bit, but not that much. I think it is not difficult. On the other hand, if you want to use the added capabilities of the newest Cocoon, you will have to find out what new features there are and how they could help you.. :-P

Cheers,
Geert
