data into a checkbox group

[Former Member]

Hi all,

My conttext is MonthsOfYear--Node

MonthName--attribute

here i have to populate checkbox group with values as "Jan","Feb"....."Dec"and display the selected months in to a table....

Wat the problem here is By default Jan is getting selected and getting displayed in table eventhought we select something else than jan it is not getting considered...

the code i used for this is

String[] monthNames = new String []
		{

		   "January", "February", "March", "April",
		   "May", "June", "July", "August", 
		   "September", "October", "November", "December",
		};

	List monthsOfYear = new ArrayList();
	for (int i =  0; i < monthNames.length; ++i)
	{
		IPrivateChkView.IMonthsOfYearElement  Myear=wdContext.createMonthsOfYearElement();
		Myear.setMonthName(monthNames<i>);
		monthsOfYear.add(Myear);
		
	}
	wdContext.nodeMonthsOfYear().bind(monthsOfYear);

My guess is that the "initializeLeadSelection" property is set to true for context node "MonthsOfYear". Therefore, the first element in the checkbox group is selected by default. Either unset this property at designtime or clear the lead selection in the controller (e.g. in the wdDoInit method or the supply function of the node).

To keep the table in synch with the selected checkboxes, assign an action to the CheckBoxGroup.onSelect event. In the action handler, update the table data source node according to the selected entries (or invalidate the node and update its elements in a supply function).
