Name

Synopsis

<input type=checkbox> (no end tag)
                  

Creates a checkbox input element within a <form>. Checkboxes are like on/off switches that can be toggled by the user. Several checkboxes in a group may be selected at one time. When a form is submitted, only the “on” checkboxes submit values to the server.

Attributes

checked

When this attribute is added, the checkbox will be checked by default.

name= text

Required. Assigns a name to the checkbox to be passed to the form-processing application if selected. Giving several checkboxes the same name creates a group of checkbox elements, allowing users to select several options with the same property.

value= text

Required. Specifies the value of this control; this value is passed to the server only if the checkbox is selected. If no value is set, a default value of “on” is sent.
