The Checkbox is a control that permits the user to make a binary choice, i.e. a choice between one of two possible mutually exclusive options. For example, the user may have to answer 'yes' (checked) or 'no' (not checked) on a simple yes/no question.
Like almost all SPARK controls, you can trigger events that are fired when the user interacts with the control (see the Event and Methods sections below and the Event Handling article for more information).
The Checkbox control can be bound to a Boolean variable.
Behavior

Events
With the Checkbox control, there are 2 types of event handlers:
- On Load When the page loads
- On Change When there is a change
You can use JavaScript logic to affect the effects of the control, depending on the event. More information on using these controls can be found in the Event Handling article.
Methods
For detailed information on the available methods for this control, access the JS Doc file.
