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

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

Thanks Joshua

I tried your suggestion and the following error occurred:

Error:/Users/buddytoups/Sites/teamtrident_app//./UserAdd/templates/ 
index.chunk on Line 16 <INPUT>: You can not mix flexy:if= or  
flexy:foreach= with dynamic form elements (turn off tag to element code  
with flexyIgnore=0, use flexy:ignore="yes" in the tag or put the  
conditional outside in a span tag

So I tried adding flexy:ignore="yes" and it works:

<input type="checkbox" name="admin_jobs" checked="checked"  
flexy:if="isChecked" flexy:ignore="yes" />
<input type="checkbox" name="admin_jobs" flexy:if="isNotChecked"  
flexy:ignore="yes" />

It's a little weird,  but it works and is not to complicated.

Thanks for the help,
Buddy Toups
