I totally agree, its slow on the client and cumbersome, you'll have to give it a lot of tlc, a html equivalent would be fresher and faster and not java enabled (dependant), also your free to be a bit more creative than just a grid,

If I remember correctly, Booleans in cfgrid display a 1 or 0 and require the user to input 1 or 0 as well (not too user-friendly). My experience with cfgrid isn't the greatest. If you're working in an intranet sort of environment where you can manually make sure the right java version gets loaded properly on each machine, it's alright. However, if the grid will be used in the real world, it's not too cool. cfgrid is a great idea with poor implementation. But that's just my opinion. ~Val ----- Original Message ----- From: "John McCosker" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, April 09, 2002 10:32 AM Subject: RE: Multiple Checkbox update? > As far as I'm aware, > No!! > > Check your documentation, > type <cfgrid> in studio click in it and press F1, > > J > > -----Original Message----- > From: Kris Pilles [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, April 09, 2002 3:29 PM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: RE: Multiple Checkbox update? > > > But it wouldn't display as a checkbox is what your saying? > > -----Original Message----- > From: John McCosker [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, April 09, 2002 10:24 AM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: RE: Multiple Checkbox update? > > > Yep this would be another way of presenting the data, > handy for people who are used to using access which is usually accounts > type people, > > of course the data would be represented in a <cfgrid column> > as oppossed to checkbox on output, > > I'm not sure about using cfgrid for initial fresh input, > > John > > > -----Original Message----- > From: Kris Pilles [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, April 09, 2002 3:14 PM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: RE: Multiple Checkbox update? > > > On another note, is it possible to incorporatre a checkbox into CFGRID>? > > > If so, this will work for me? > > -----Original Message----- > From: John McCosker [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, April 09, 2002 9:53 AM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: RE: Multiple Checkbox update? > > > <form ...> > <input type="checkbox" name="customerOne"> > <input type="checkbox" name="customerTwo"> > <input type="checkbox" name="customerThree"> > </form> > > Then when your doing your insert query > > <cfquery name="insert" datasource="#request.dsn#" ...> > INSERT INTO tblSubscribe > > (customerOne,customerTwo,customerThree) > ( > <cfif IsDefined("form.customerOne")><cfset > customerOne=1>#customerOne#,<cfelse>0,</cfif> > <cfif IsDefined("form.customerTwo")><cfset > customerTwo=1>#customerTwo#,<cfelse>0,</cfif> > <cfif IsDefined("form.customerThree")><cfset > customerThree=1>#customerThree#,<cfelse>0</cfif> > ) > </cfquery> > > Then if you had another page showing who has done what it could look > something like this > > <cfquery name="get" datasource="#request.dsn#" ...> > select customerOne,customerTwo,customerThree > from dbo.somewhere > where someid=#maybesomevar# > </cfquery> > <cfparam name="ATTRIBUTES.customerOne" default="#get.customerOne#"> > <cfparam name="ATTRIBUTES.customerTwo" default="#get.customerTwo#"> > <cfparam name="ATTRIBUTES.customerThree" default="#get.customerThree#"> > > <FORM ....> > <input type="checkbox" name="customerOne" <cfif > len(ATTRIBUTES.customerOne) GT 0>selected</cfif>> <input type="checkbox" > name="customerTwo" <cfif len(ATTRIBUTES.customerTwo) GT > 0>selected</cfif>> <input type="checkbox" name="customerThree" <cfif > len(ATTRIBUTES.customerThree) GT 0>selected</cfif>> > </FORM> > > Just a quick and straight forward way but there are others and probably > better, > > J > > -----Original Message----- > From: Kris Pilles [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, April 09, 2002 2:33 PM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: RE: Multiple Checkbox update? > > > All I need to do is have the action page either enter a 1 into a field > in my DB if the checkbox is defined (selected). > > I've got a list of clients and they want the ability to check them off > on a monthly basis inorder to keep track of billing.
