Does the ISdefined("form.checkbox") function not work for what you were
trying to do?Can we see the code? (Hey from a fellow Daytonian) Candace K.

Initially, when I tested submitting the form, it was giving me problems for the checkboxes that were NOT checked. So I figured, OK, I need to figure out some way to get the current value of the checkbox, then go ahead and set it to checked, and then I'll be able to submit the form. So I wrote a little JavaScript function that loops through all of the items in the form, if it's a checkbox, it checks whether or not it is checked, and sets it's value, then it sets it to checked, and then it submits the form. All well and good, and actually does what I need it to do, IF the user ends up being satisfied with the options that they checked. I'd like to go ahead have the action template for the form also be a confirmation page, which will allow the user to review the options that they've checked, and then submit their options to our database. My problem now though, is that if a user realizes that they've inadvertently c! hecked a box that they didn't mean to, or didn't check a box that they needed to, I can put a link on that page so that they can go back to the form and correct their options, but when you just go back (using something like javascript: history.go(-1) or something like that), now ALL of the checkboxes are checked. Is there a better way (I'm sure there must be, I just don't know what it is) to handle the submission of forms with checkboxes, so that if a user has to go back to the form and make changes, that it will set the form back to what they had originally selected? Any thoughts or ideas would be greatly appreciated. ::YEX:: <)))>< /* || Robert D.
