How do I pre select multiple checkboxes in a group

Hi,
In Designer mode, I have a checkbox group with options
fn_1=description_1
fn_2=description_2
....
fn_n=description_n

and selected values fn_1,fn_2 etc

When the form is displayed in Designer mode with only one entry in selected values (e.g. fn_1) it correctly displays the selected checkbox.

If I add a second comma separated value (e.g. fn_1,fn_2), then nothing is shown as selected. (I have also tried space and semicolon).

Could anyone let me know how this should be done as I can't find this documentsed anywhere (or I have missed it!)

Thanks
Pete

Hi Bob
I have added the following to a custom code and not sure whether it should go before or after the render.

<?php
if ( !isset($form->data['checkbox'] ||  
     !is_array($form->data['checkbox']) ) {
   $form->data['checkbox'] = array('advice_socialisation', 'advice_socialisation_check');
}
?>

Either before or after, it gives an error on form load of...

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '||' (T_BOOLEAN_OR), expecting ',' or ')' in /home/superpan/public_html/...../custom_code.php(20) : eval()'d code on line 2

Hi Pete,

Sorry, I missed a bracket ) in line 2 - fixed now.

It would go in a Custom Code action before the HTML (Render Form) action.

I checked for that but missed it! Amateur!

Yet again, many thanks Bob, that worked perfectly.

Now just need the attachment problem sorted - LOL
