How to Pass a Check Box Value Into a Servlet

A Java servlet lets you process JSP pages that contain form fields such as a check box. If you do not specify a check box value, the value passed is "on." You can specify a value using the "value" property in the JSP form. Then, you use the "getParameter" function to retrieve the check box value in the processing page.

      Open your JSP editor and open the Web project. Double-click the JSP form page and the processing page that you want to use to retrieve the check box value.

      Add the following code to add a check box with an associated value:

      <input type="checkbox" value="myvalue" id="check">

      The value passed from the form is "myvalue."
