Chris,

this might help.

var list = document.getElementsByName("chkRecipe"); // chkRecipe is the
name/id for all the check boxes
for(i=0;i<list.length;i++)
{
if (list.item(i).checked == true)
{
alert("check box is selected");	
// to get the check box selected value use,	list.item(i).value
}
else
{
alert("check box is not selected");
}
}

Subject: [javascript] Trouble with group of checkboxes. Need Help asap


I have a page with 5 checkboxes that have the same name and different 
values.  I want to check to see if any of the boxes are checked before 
continuing to an ASP page.  I know about using the checked property for 
separate checkboxes, but I wasn't sure how to do it with a group of 
checkboxes.  Can somebody please help?

Chris
