Getting started with flash forms - cfformgroup with checkboxes PLEASE HELP!!
Hello all,
I've been developing basic ColdFusion sites for quite a while but just recently took the plunge into RIA's. I have two problems:
1) How can I get a checkbox inside the <cfformgroup> tag to display a string value once the submit button is clicked (on the results page)?
2) How can I stop the unchecked checkboxes to stop returning a "false" value?
Here's my code:
<cfform action="#cgi.script_name#?#cgi.query_string#" format="flash" width="800" height="600" timeout="1800">
<cfformgroup type="tabnavigator">
<cfformgroup type="page" label="Page 1"><br />
<cfformitem type="HTML">SUPERVISION</cfformitem>
<cfinput type="checkbox" required="no" name="satisfactory" Label="Satisfactory" value="Satisfactory">
<cfinput type="checkbox" required="no"name="person" Label="Person in Charge present, certified, demonstrates knowledge and performs duties" value="Person in Charge">
<cftextarea required="no" name="commentsPerson" cols="47" rows="5"></cftextarea>
<cfinput type="checkbox" required="no" name="training" Label="Employee training, documentation of training" value="Employee Training">
<cftextarea required="no" name="commentsTraining" cols="47" rows="5"></cftextarea>
<cfinput type="checkbox" required="no" name="awareness" Label="Management Awareness, Policy Present" value="Management Awareness">
<cftextarea required="no" name="commentsAwareness" cols="47" rows="5"></cftextarea>
<cfinput type="checkbox" required="no" name="reporting" Label="Proper Use of Reporting, Restriction and Exclusion" value="Proper use of Reporting">
<cftextarea required="no" name="commentsReporting" cols="47" rows="5"></cftextarea>
</cfformgroup>
</cfformgroup>
</cfform>
I clicked the second checkbox and entered "test" in the textarea field and I get this when I click submit:
| SUPERVISION | |||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| true | |||||||
| test | |||||||
| false | |||||||
| false | |||||||
| false | |||||||
I would like it instead to show:
SUPERVISION
Person in Charge (instead of true)
test (or whatever comments are entered into the field)
I don't claim to be a CF guru but I have tried everything that would normally work in a regular cfform. If checkboxes aren't feasible (I just prefer them because layout wise they're neater) any code samples of what will work would be most appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
