Check Boxes and Radio Buttons

Check boxes allow the user to select one or more options. Each check box must have a unique name. Radio buttons allow only one choice within a group of buttons. Each radio button within a group should have the same name. You can create more than one group of radio buttons by using different names.

<INPUT TYPE="{CHECKBOX|RADIO}" NAME="name" VALUE="value" [CHECKED]>

where:

TYPE
selects the type of field (checkbox or radio button).
NAME
assigns a name to the field.
VALUE
assigns the value that will be sent to the CGI program if the user selects this field.
CHECKED
specifies that this field should be selected by default when the form is displayed.
