Replacement for checkboxes

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I have a view in which i have 8-10 checkboxes apart from some other nput fields.My requirement is to replace these checkboxes with some other UI element which allows multiple selection.the no. of checkboxes is not fixed so i want such a UI element which can allow me to accomodate new values in future if there is any change.. I have thought of using combo boxes...

Please reply ASAP...I have to propose the changes by the end of day...

Hi Amit

You can do one thing . as you know the priority of the check boxes (i mean important or most selected )

1) Create a LinktoAction / Button ,by clicking on that make some action ie

for example consider calender. SELECT ODD MONTHS,EVEN MONHTS,MONTHS WITH 31 DAYS,MONTHS WITH 30 DAYS like that you can create some predefined actions(here ui elements) so that it will be easy for the user to select them.

you can do one more thing. SELECT ALL,INVERT SELECTION,SELECT NONE.

hope you got the point which i am trying to expalin

One possibility is ..u can use a table with multiselect ON...that will allow you to increase your no of rows dynamically and also..u will b able to select one or more orws of your choice

Hi Amit,

You can create check boxes dynamically at runtime as per your requirement.

Hi Amit,

You can opt for dropdown in your case.
