I am a 1 year old newbie and 1st time participant to the email group...working on a total website using PostgreSQL in the background. I have hit a wall where help would be appreciated. In a nut-shell, I have an area where employees can submit articles of industry info for our customers. In that article submission they check off a checkbox denoting what specific customer sub-web they want it published. I then have an area where they can go back in and edit the article or delete totally. The only problem I have is showing in the checkboxs what was selected when they first submitted the article. Of course when I have the following: I bring in the value from another DTML Method reading the request from PostgreSQL: <input type=hidden name="main" value="<dtml-var main>"> In the form I have the checkbox show up in the form, but it is not checked if the value pulled from the db is appropriate: <td><b>Main:</b></td> <td><input type="checkbox" name="newmain" value="1"></td> I have tested that the value is appropriate, but cannot figure how to show that checkbox as filled if it is supposed to be (1 as checked and 0 as not checked). I am figuring that Python will be the solution, but if the employee wants to uncheck the box, how is that handled with a dtml instance? Thank you Don Brooksby
