Re: [Wasp-users] Form Checkbox select checked (Flexy/Chuck)

[Buddy T. <me...@my...>]

Actually, I tried using a span with flexy:if and the Smarty-like way  
but flexy complaint about having two instances of the checkbox. I guess  
its because it evaluates the input nodes with out processing the "if"  
statements. Whatever, long as there is a solution at works.

Thank you so much for your help, I really am loving WASP. The framework  
is so smart and simple to use and has a lightweight code base.
