Perhaps you have forgotten the value it should have when checked?

<INPUT TYPE="checkbox" NAME="isPublic:int" value="1">

Furthermore if a checkbox isn't checked, no value will be send at all.

Maybe it would be simpler to use a select? Then you will allways get a
value.

<input type=select name=isPublic:int>
    <option value=1>Public<option>
    <option value=0>Hidden<option>
</input>
