No, I haven't implemented it yet. But I must plead ignorance here, because I don't understand why I want to reset the checkboxes to their unticked value. If I'm submitting the form essentially back to itself, what does the unticked value do for me? Or am I missing something?
As for the radio buttons, making the first one already selected is my out with that. I only included them in this discussion because they fundamentally work in the same way as checkboxes (i.e. they don't send variables if not checked). Thanks.
