I do not know what exactly you want to do, but if you need ALL boxes on the response page, you could make a [loop] there instead using [formvariables]. That allows more control. Of course, you need numbered variables. Maybe you can adapt this code snippets to your needs: ---input.tpl---
--- countboxes is the number of boxes you have, set it's value to [numfound] and write the names of the checkboxes as cb.[index] to get numbered. The field values can be anything. ---ouput.tpl--- [math show=f]cnt=0[/math] [loop start=1&end=[countboxes]] [math show=f]cnt=cnt+1[/math] [showif [interpret][cb.[math]cnt[/math]][/interpret]^cb] cb.[math]cnt[/math]=off [/showif] [hideif [interpret][cb.[math]cnt[/math]][/interpret]^cb] cb.[math]cnt[/math]=[interpret][cb.[math]cnt[/math]][/interpret] [/hideif]
[/loop] --- In plain speech: #set a counter to 0. #[countboxes] comes from input.tpl and is the length of the loop. #at each run increment the counter to construct the fieldnames. #if [cb.x] containes cb, show cb.x=off #if not, show the value of the field [cb.x] In the above example, when you check just the second checkbox, you get this response: cb.1=off cb.2=222 cb.3=off Hope this helps, Peter__________________________________________ Peter Ostry - po@ostry.com - www.ostry.com Ostry & Partner - Ostry Internet Solutions Auhofstrasse 29 A-1130 Vienna Austria fon ++43-1-8777454 fax ++43-1-8777454-21
