Question

I’m displaying a choice field in Symfony 2.0.4 with multiple checkboxes. Symfony always displays the first checkbox as checked and I would like to disable this behavior. I’ve tried setting the underlying entity’s field to an empty array before building the form but this didn’t have any effect. Is this a glitch in the Symfony version or is there a special way of achieving this?

EDIT:
By choice field with multiple checkboxes I mean a choice field having the expanded and multiple options set to true.

It seems that this was my stupid mistake. I was overriding the form theme and in the choice_widget_expanded block I was adding the checked flag for the first element of the choice array.
