texte = tee hee. ;-)I get it now. Still, my previous post about the showif context returning F if passes a form variable that does not exist would work. Otherwise if an error is returned you could use an iserror check but I do not see a WebDNA tag for error checking.Now it may be possible on the Mac to write an Applescript because Applescript DOES have an error checking method:[applescript] try set [mycheckbox] to [mycheckbox] set [mycheckbox] to T on error set [mycheckbox] to F return F end try [/applescript]if the first line generates an APPLESCRIPT error the second line never gets executed, but instead the code within on error get's executed. If there is a way to make this server side, saving it as a compiled script then call it from within a template, then we are in business, on Macintoshes anyway.I am a newbie to this sort of thing, but feeding your checkbox variables to this script would guarantee them to be T or F if the above script works like I think it would.Any thoughts?-- Sincerely, Bob Sneidar Systems Manager The Word For Today> From: John Peacock
