Checkboxes not passing variables correctly
I have a group of 10 checkboxes where 3 have to be checked. I have a JS script to validate this. The issue at hand is the values are not being passed completely. If you choose Robert Mckenzie the name is passed Robet Mkenzie, any ideas would be appreciated.

Steve, We want to help, but without seeing the form code it is almost impossible to troubleshoot.

Re: Checkboxes not passing variables correctly
delimiters=crlf You're using crlf as delimitior? No wonder c, r, l f are lost. You probably meant CR LF, but these are not the delimiters used to separate field values, the simple comma is used.

What is your desired output?

Re: Checkboxes not passing variables correctly
Is there a list of all possible delimiters value? A delimeter could be any 'legal' character in a string. The delimeter you use is informed by the string you are given to break up into list items; using different delimiters will break up your 'list' in different ways. Here is some code to demonstrate, just copy and past into a blank template and run it; then look over the output and hopefully things will become clear for you (if they haven't already): cfset myList = foo|bar,sticky toffee pudding|init cfoutput h1Delimiter demo/h1 p The list: #myList#/p h2Using default delimiter (comma)/h2 ul cfloop list=#myList# index=listItem li#listItem#/li /cfloop /ul h2Using '|'/h2 ul cfloop list=#myList# index=listItem delimiters=| li#listItem#/li /cfloop /ul h2Using '|' or ','/h2 ul cfloop list=#myList# index=listItem delimiters=|, li#listItem#/li /cfloop /ul h2Using any vowel/h2 ul cfloop list=#myList# index=listItem delimiters=aeiou li#listItem#/li /cfloop /ul h2Using a character that isn't in the string (@)/h2 ul cfloop list=#myList# index=listItem delimiters=@ li#listItem#/li /cfloop /ul /cfoutput Also, if you want a delimiter of CR LF (used quite regularly to delimit whole lines of a csv that have a line break to indicate a new row) you can use the Chr function: delimiters=#Chr(13)##Chr(10)# HTH Dominic -- Blog it up: http://fusion.dominicwatson.co.uk ~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;160198600;22374440;w Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:302037 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
