Hello All!

can someone tell me whether there are any alternatives to using IF and ELSEIF statements to record user inputs in a checkbox. I've four checkboxes and i just want to grab the ones that the user has checked.
For ex,
IF checkbox1.checked AND checkbox2.checked Then
DO SUMTHING
END IF

Right now, i've a long IF and elseif statements to do the job.
i see that the using case and select wont work with checkbox.checked!
is there any other ways? TIA

Name them all the same (yes just like radio buttons) Then when the user submits the form a commer delimited string (usually id's) will be posted to the destination page. These values will be all the checked boxes, if none were checked the form variable wil be equal to an empty string.

If I had to do this, I would have coded as under

Let chk_1,chk_2,chk_3,chk_4 be the elements

Dim str_check
str_check = ""
if request(chk_1) <> "" then
   str_check = str_check & "1"
else
   str_check = str_check & "0"
end if

if request(chk_2) <> "" then
   str_check = str_check & "1"
else
   str_check = str_check & "0"
end if

if request(chk_3) <> "" then
   str_check = str_check & "1"
else
   str_check = str_check & "0"
end if

if request(chk_4) <> "" then
   str_check = str_check & "1"
else
   str_check = str_check & "0"
end if

Now the str_chk will have a 4 characters in it (eg .. 1001,1100 etc..)

So I can directly use switch statements (switch is always better than using a lot of if statements)
Select Case str_chk
   Case "0000"
      statements . . .
   Case "0001"
      statements ....
...
...
    case "1111"
      statements ....

End Select

   Hope this would be better ....
