Description

A WOCheckBox object displays itself in the HTML page as its namesake, a check box user interface control. It corresponds to the HTML element <INPUT TYPE="CHECKBOX"...>.

If you want to create a list of check boxes, use WOCheckBoxList instead of this element.

Bindings

value Value of this input element. If not specified, WebObjects provides a default value.
selection If selection and value are equal when the page is generated, the check box is checked. When the page is submitted, selection is assigned the value of the check box.
checked During page generation, if checked evaluates to YES, the check box appears in the checked state. During request handling, checked reflects the state the user left the check box in: YES if checked; NO if not.
name Name that uniquely identifies this element within the form. You may specify a name or let WebObjects automatically assign one at runtime.
disabled If disabled evaluates to YES, this element appears in the page but is not active. That is, selection won't contain the user's selection when the page is submitted.
