Hi thirupathy,

Please post the Form HTML for the checkboxes so I can see both together.

Hi thirupathy,

All of the checkboxes have the same id (ids should be unique) so your JavaScript will have problems identifying them. I don't believe that it will automatically create an array from these results. Try this:

What kind/s of music do you listen to?<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="edit" value="edit"">
<div id='music_types'>
Rock<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="music" id="music0" value="Reggae">
Reggae<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="music" id="music1" value="Pop">
Pop<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="music" id="music2" value="Rap">
Rap<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="music" id="music3" value="Metal">
Metal<br>
</div>
<input type="submit" onclick="get_check_value()">

function get_check_value()
{
var c_value = "";
var inputs = $('music_types').getElements('input');
for (var i=0; i < inputs.length; i++)
   {
   if (inputs[i].checked)
      {
      c_value += inputs[i].value + "\n";
      }
   }
}

Not tested and may need debugging (NB uses MooTools syntax).

I am confused
What is the real code?
I am trying to get only checked values, but it comes with unchecked values too

Please post a single code that get only checked values

Hi clovismmbr,

What do you need exactly?? This thread was about getting values with JavaScript I think.

If you just need values submitted then the 'normal' code from the Wizard works OK.
