The reason for the hidden field is so that you always get something on
form submission. Without the hidden field, if a user does not select
the checkbox you will not get anything within the data array at all.
With the hidden form field you will get it there.

everything for form will be an option on input from now on (for the
most part.)
why would it come back
most of those options are just wrappers. do you know how to read php
code?
do you know how to read the english language? Did you not read what I
wrote regarding the API?

Ok adding it as option works.. so i suppose checkbox is not comming
back in 1.2 as the htmlhelpers?
But it still creates a hidden form also? Is there any reason for this
and is there a way to turn it off..
input('publish', array('type' => 'checkbox', 'value'
=> 'yes')); ?>
makes:
Publish
Mech7: use form->input('published', array('type'=>'checkbox'));
As for the hidden hidden input, as of the currently live API docs
here: api.cakephp.org/1.2, there is no way to turn off the hidden
field.

Is there going to be a form->checkbox in 1.2, since at the moment i
can only find it in the html helper, also... when i create a checkbox:
checkbox('Article/published', null, array('value'
=> 'yes')) ?>
It automatically creates a hidden form is there anyway to turn this
off?
