Dynamic Checkbox

[EdmondsM]

Hi all, I have a set of check boxes that I have blank text fields next to.
When the user checks the check box the current date should be desplayed in the
field next to it. I am using a flash forms.

thanks

well although this may not solve your whole question, but part of what you can
do is a statment
<cfif isdefined(#form.checkboxname#)>
<input type="text" value="predefined value for checkbox">
</cfif>

I don't know how you can make happen withou refreshing the page though. Maybe
that helps, maybe not. Good luck.

Thanks kenji776, how would I go about refreshing the page after I check the check box. I have search high and low, but can find a way to do it without doing a refresh.

Well unless I am wrong, clicking submit usually refreshes the page. Or
something similar to that. Not sure if the submit creates an actual refresh, or
just an incredable simluation. Either way, a submit button should trigger the
text boxes getting swapped over.

Do it with JavaScript.
Just set a VAR= new date(today) in a function,
when the onClick attribute gets kicked off by a checkbox, set the value
attribute of the text field to the VAR previously created.

Enjoy,

Hi NuroTec, this will probably work, but I am finding that you can not do Javascript within flash pages.
