dynamic field into table

[stpmtp]

I am building a form that has some check boxes static text and dates.
New to ASP.
I can do this to see if the box is checked or not

  <input name="statuson" type="checkbox" <%If rsone.Fields("statuson").Value =false then  Response.Write "unchecked" else Response.Write "checked"  End If %> >[\code]
but could I do if the box is checked then get the value of a static field?

Huh???

Assuming the following checkbox is contained within an HTML form:[tt]
<input name="statuson" type="checkbox">[/tt]

*** Before the form is submitted, you could check its value in client-side code (not ASP)[tt]
if (document.forms["MyFormName"].elements["statuson"].checked == true)
{ /* checked */ }
else
{ /* not checked */ }[/tt]



*** An ASP that processes a submitted HTML form might detect if a checkbox was checked like this:[tt]
IF (Len(Request.Form("statuson")) > 0) THEN
'checked
ELSE
'not checked
END IF[/tt]
Note: By default the browser will send the value "on" for all checkboxes that were checked. There is no corresponding "off" for unchecked boxes, merely an absence of "on."



*** If the value of a field named Foo in a database table determines the default status of a checkbox.... and you have read that value into an ADO recordset object named rsone then you could use ASP like below to create HTML that has the proper default checked status:[tt]
Response.Write "<input name=statuson type=checkbox"
If rsone.Fields("Foo").Value then
Response.Write " checked>"
Else
Response.Write ">"
End If [/tt]
Note: There is no "unchecked", just the absence of "checked"
