field Mode

Using the checkbox widget in field mode requires the field attribute to specify the name of the field. The checked and unchecked attributes specify the values to be assigned to the field to correspond to its checked and unchecked states respectively. The default attribute is used as a fallback value if the field is missing or contains a value that does not correspond to the value of the checked or unchecked attributes.

This example creates a checkbox that is checked if the field status is equal to open and unchecked if the field is equal to closed. If the field value is undefined then it defaults to closed.

<$checkbox field="status" checked="open" unchecked="closed" default="closed"> Is it open?</$checkbox>

''status:'' {{!!status}}
