Re: CheckBoxList

In this case, you might want to use a WORepetition of WOCheckBoxes
instead of a WOCheckBoxList... or

...if we're talking WO4, you can do anything you want if you use
WXCheckBoxList

Add the ComponentElements.framework to your project (it should be in
Local/Library/Frameworks

and go to town. For maxi-customization, copy the WXCheckBoxList.wo to
your project's Components and the  WXCheckBoxList.wos to your Classes
and then you will also have access TO the component itself so you can do
whatever you want with the template/wod/code WXCheckBoxList uses.

For example here is the complete HTML template for WXChekcBoxList:

<!-- ------------------
< -- WXCheckBoxList
< -- ------------------ -->
<webobject name=CheckBoxWrapper>
    <webobject name=CheckBoxRepetition>
        <webobject name=CheckBox></webobject><webobject
name=Content></webobject>
    </webobject>
</webobject>


You could add a WOString object (before the CheckBox object) here where
its value is bound to whatever.
