Hi,

I am facing a problem while using checkboxes. I want to use a check box and on the basis of its checked or unchecked status I want to show other container.

I am not able to catch the status of the checkbox wheather is it selected or not.

Can any one please help me with a code snipped on how I can catch the checkboxes status(if it is checked or unchecked)?

Thanks in advance.

Checkboxes are basically a multi-select field in formspub.

iwItem.getValue() will give you an array of the indecies of the checkboxes that are selected. An empty array means nothing is selected. You can get the list of options from iwItem.getOptions().

For example, if the second and fourth checkboxes in this field are selected, iwItem.getValue() would return [1,3].

You could get the values of those checkboxes via iwItem.getOptions()[1].value and iwItem.getOptions()[3].value.

@rpoulin has already given you the information - but you should have been able to find this for yourself by reading the FormAPI manual.

Do you have the FormAPI manual?

If not, do you (or someone in your organization) have access to the Support site to download it?
