getting value of checkbox.

I don't know much about servlets, but you can retrieve the value of a JCheckBox by calling isSelected().

But what are you trying to do? Retrieve the value from the JCheckBox's state or from the DB?

I Did something similar a while ago, though I Dont understand something, you want the values taken from the Html and depending on them the behavior of yor form will change?

Could you give me more info or some code to look at? It's easier to help with some actual reference instead of just words.

Thanks.

Get the value using js and assign it to a hidden field. From the hidden you can take the value in the server side. Then use, StringTokenizer to read each token.

function subForm()

{

var j = 0;

var check_values = new Array();

var the_form = window.document.forms[0];

var commaVal;

for(var i=0; i<the_form.length; i++)

{

var temp = the_form.elements[i].type;

if((temp == "check") && (the_form.elements[i].checked)) {

check_values[j] = the_form.elements[i].value;

j++;

}

}

for(var k=0; k><check_values.length; k++)

{

commaVal = commaVal + check_values[k] + ","; //get as comman delimited string

}

document.getElementById("hiddenfield").value = commaVal; //assign to hidden

}
