Question

I have HTML Generated Checkboxes on a page. How can I check to see if they are ‘Checked’ with c#? I am looking to use an if statement

if (checkbox.checked = true)
   {
        // EXECUTE CODE HERE
   }

I don’t know how to call the element since it’s HTML.

For my HTML I use another aspx to generate the HTML

FileListLabel.Text += ("<input type='checkbox' name='option" + counter +
                       "' value='" + SPEncode.HtmlEncode(oListItem["ID"].ToString()) +
                       "'>" + SPEncode.HtmlEncode(oListItem["LinkFilename"].ToString()) + "<BR>");

Is there a way to make that runat server? Or Should I use the Request.Form?

Thank you.

With C# you either need to have the checkboxes declared as runat="server" to access by name, or check the Request.Form for the value.
