And FYI, you should avoid using the request parameters yourself -- it
is best to let the JSF controls do that. DataTables not only use
client IDs, but also add an inded for each row, so it is really not
best to attempt to reproduce the ID yourself. Also renderers have the
full ability and right according to the specification to change the ID
to whatever they want (they don't even have to use the ID attribute
from the UIComponent if they don't want to)

If the checkbox is for a property on your loop variable (say Item):
<t:dataTable
value="#{mybean.mylist}"
var="_item">
<t:column>
<t:selectBooleanCheckbox value="#{_item.selected}" />
</t:column>
</t:dataTable>
If you want to save the checked items in a list on the bean:
<html
...
xmlns:jdt="http://www.jenia.org/jsf/dataTools";>
...
<t:dataTable
value="#{mybean.mylist}"
var="_item">
<t:column>
<jdt:multipleRowsSelector
selectionList="#{mybean.selectedItems}" />
</t:column>
</t:dataTable>
Where "selectedItems" would map to methods:
public List<Item> getSelectedItems()
public void setSelectedItems(List<Item> items)
