Question

I need to show a checkbox or radio button checked or unchecked based on a boolean value.

Is there a way to do that on jsp pages?

I am using spring mvc 3.

Its like checked/unchecked options in an objective questions. If an option is true it should show a checkbox or radio button checked against it.

EDIT: The boolean value doesn’t have anything to do with a form, its just a boolean value.

Thanks.

try this

<c:choose>
            <c:when test="${param.chk==true}">
                Checked <input type="checkbox" name="dance"
                       checked/>
            </c:when>
            <c:otherwise>
                Unchecked <input type="checkbox" name="dance"
                       />
            </c:otherwise>
        </c:choose>

Above I’ve shown it for request parameter chk, you can use it against any attribute in any scope.
