Ok, this post is a little old (from April) but I've got a question, what's
the whole point of this hidden element being added with a checkbox element?
This is new to me all around and I was a little surprised and confused as to
why this is being added.
I'm just not sure why (INI config file):
project.form.drivers.elements.businessinnov.type = "checkbox"
produces (HTML):
<input type="hidden" name="drivers[businessinnov]" value="0" />
<input type="checkbox" name="drivers[businessinnov]"
id="drivers-businessinnov" value="1" />
Thanks!
