hi all, 

below is a snippet which builds a table and adds a checkbox for each 
childrow in a DataRelation.  On the post back I can't figure out how to 
iterate through the checkboxes to collect the ids of the ones that are 
checked.  I am using C# and feeling fairly dumb, I have achieved this as a 
test when they are added at design time, but fall down sobbing when done 
at runtime.


foreach(DataRow thetype in types)
{
	CheckBox checkBox1 = new CheckBox(); 
	checkBox1.Text = thetype["type_name"].ToString();
	checkBox1.ID = thetype["id"].ToString();
	checkBox1.EnableViewState=true;
	TableRow row2 = new TableRow();
	TableCell cell2 = new TableCell(); 
	TableCell cell3 = new TableCell(); 
	cell2.Controls.Add(checkBox1); 
	cell3.Text = " ";
	row2.Cells.Add(cell3);
	row2.Cells.Add(cell2); 
	Table1.Rows.Add(row2);
}

You could access the check boxes as the way you created, meaning, loop thru
for each
childrow in a DataRelation on the post back and see if each check box is
checked.

}

Thanks Harish, 

I am using the following method which does the job:

HttpRequest r;

r = this.Request;
// cycle through all the keys in the returned Request
for (int i = 0; i < r.Form.Keys.Count; i++)
	{
		string k = r.Form.Keys[i];

		//do stuff

	}
