Run a cfloop on the list then do a comparison against the person if it
matches then do a checked on the input type:-)

Subject: checkboxes in a list


I am designing an administration area and I need to assign a single page to
multiple people. Because I don't know how many people will need access and
because I'll be adding/deleting people all the time, I need to make all of
the values go into the same field (userPermissions) in the database.

The "pages" table has the following fields: pageID, pageDescription,
userPrivileges.

My code looks something like this:

<cfoutput>
<input type="checkbox" name="userPrivileges" value="#userID#">#userID#
</cfoutput>

I can submit these values without a problem. A comma-delimited list is
inserted into the DB.

My problem is that when I try to edit the page to change permissions, I
can't see who was selected (or checked) before and who wasn't.

I know this is a common problem, but I haven't been able to find any
articles that really explain the problem I'm running into. I know it's
something simple that I'm just not seeing.

Can anyone shed some light on my problem? Thanks in advance!

Greg Albert
