(This is a FAQ-- the answer is in the list archives multiple times.) Un-checked checkboxes are not successful form elements and will not be present in the request. You need to clear all of the checkboxes prior to Struts' populating the form from the request. There are several ways to do this, the most popular of which is to override the 'reset' method and set the checkbox properties to false. With dynamic forms, there's an 'initialize' method that will initialize the form based on the info in struts-config.xml. You can call that from 'reset'. If you are using DynaActionForm directly, you'll need to subclass it to provide the 'reset' method. If you don't do this, as you've noticed, it's impossible to ever un-check a checkbox on your form. -- Wendy Smoak Application Systems Analyst, Sr. ASU IA Information Resources Management --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
