Check boxes in HTML forms now return detailed values

Improved P14C-45901

The Custom HTML Template capability is often used to build a form, with check box elements such as the following:

<input type="checkbox" name="customerLocation" id ="customerLocation" value="loc256">

Previously, check boxes would only return true or false, such as:

customerLocation=true

Now, when the check box is selected, it provides the value defined in the element properties, such as:

customerLocation=loc256

Other scenarios:

  • When the check box is selected and a value isn't defined, it returns true or on, depending on the browser.
  • When the check box is cleared, no value is returned.
Attention:

This change could impact the function of your production flows.

Review any flows that use the Custom HTML Template capability to show a check box to the user. If so, check whether the flow relies on a true or false result from the check box and adapt it to accept true or on, a value string, or no value.
