CheckBoxControl getTagName method (override)

Returns "input"

JavaScript

checkBoxControl.getTagName()

Remarks

This method is called during rendering to get the name of the HTML tag to use for control's peer element.

Control's implementation method returns the value of the ID_tagName property if it is available, or "span" if no ID_tagName is set.

Subclasses may override this method to specify a different tag name. For example, ContainerControl returns "div" instead of "span" by default.

Returns

An HTML tag name string, e.g. "span", "tr", "div" etc.

Base Implementation

CheckBoxControl getText method

Gets the text label to use on this control.

JavaScript

var strVal = checkBoxControl.getText()

Remarks

If this control has an ID_text property set on it, and the text property is non-null, this returns the text property. Otherwise, this uses Control.reflectOnBoundValue() to inspect the ID_checked property to see if it is bound to something which has reflection PropertyInfo. If so, this returns the property info's ID_displayName property.

Returns

The string to use for the checkbox label, or null.

CheckBoxControl ID_checked property

Boolean property indicating whether this checkbox or radio button is currently checked.

JavaScript

var boolVal = checkBoxControl.getValue(ID_checked)
checkBoxControl.setValue(ID_checked, boolVal)

Xml

<j:CheckBox checked="true"  ... >
or
<j:CheckBox checked="false" ... >

CheckBoxControl setText method

Sets the ID_text property on this control.

JavaScript

checkBoxControl.setText(text)
