HTML checkboxes to FM validation problem

[Kittrick]

Hello everyone,

I am working on a real-time sign-in system and have a series of checkboxes in CDML/HTML that work and calculate as they should on the website...except that it doesn't check the boxes in the FM database so there is no way to validate to the web user that the box is checked for future changes in FM as they are all blank. That I find really really weird. Does anyone have any ideas how I could get the boxes in FM to be checked or unchecked??

I have a solvable workabout to solve this problem...but it still doesn't check the boxes in FM....but it does validate if anyone is having the same problems. I had two different variables...one to just store the X in the checkbox (_8amMonday) and the other variable (hour_checkedMonday8am ) to calculate the time as 1 hour of the day.

The validation CDML is:

<input type="checkbox" name="_8amMonday" value="1"

[fmp-if:hour_checkedMonday8am .eq. 1]checked[/fmp-if]>

<input type="hidden" name="_8amMonday">

I hope I helped anyone with a similar problem. I'd like to hear from anyone who got the box to check in FM. Thanks!
