I have found similar statements a few times around, that is some empty form fields are not trasmitted with the client request. However, I couldn't manage to find in the W3C HTML specifications where exactley this point is exposed: has somebody a precise link? Or is a matter of specification implementaion (and then browser dependent)? TIA, p.t.
This is old: but here is one reference http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/HTMLPlus/htmlplus_42.html "The form contents are expressed as a property list of attribute names and values. Radio buttons and checkboxes are left out of the list when unchecked. This ensures that only the selected radio button contributes a name=value pair. Omitting the VALUE attribute for a checkbox field causes the field when checked to appear as a name without a value (this is appropriate for Boolean attributes)." Jim

This is how HTML works. Rather bad design. <SNIP>
