....someone could help me ? I can't find anything about this.
I'm trying to display a checkbox in a form but I don't have the correct syntax. What I use : {attribute_view_gui attribute=$node.data_map.myidentifier} But I have only YES or NO if the box is checked or not when I crate the form. May I have the correct syntax or more generally a tutorial for the different objects ?

You have the correct syntax. However the default template for boolean (checkbox) is to display yes or no. Here is the code for the template: {$attribute.data_int|choose("No"|i18n("design/standard/content/datatype"),"Yes"|i18n("design/standard/content/datatype"))}
To get the integer value you can do: {$node.data_map.myidentifier.data_int} If you want to display a section you can do:
{section show=$node.data_map.myidentifier.data_int}
This will be shown if the checkbox i checked. {/section} --bård

....someone could help me ? I can't find anything about this. Thanks Bård for this new step.
So now it display the integrer 0 or 1 but what I want is a "real" checkbox whose result can be send by mail with the other elements of the form.
Any suggestion ? Thanks

To get checkboxes on information collectors you would need to use strings at this time. If you just change the template of the attribute you would like to be shown as a checkbox to use <input type="checkbox" .../> instead of using <input type="text" .. /> you will be able to fetch the input from the text box and it will be stored in the database. Checkboxes/boolean do not support information collection yet, so you have to use this workaround. --bård

Bård,
I'm not sure to understand what you explained. But I tryed another way : {let myattribute=$node.data_map.myidentifier} <input type="checkbox" name="ContentObjectAttribute_ezstring_data_text_{$myattribute.id}" value="{$:item}">{$:item}</input> {/let} Still the same result. For sure it print a checkbox, but I still can't recieve the information if it has been check or not. Nothing. I'll be very happy to have light on it. Laurent

In response to Bard's suggestion to change the attribute template, where is this done? In which file?

Try this out. In the file: kernel/classes/datatypes/ezboolean/ezbooleantype.php We added this function, which turns the datatype ezboolean (a checkbox) into an information collector.
function isInformationCollector()
{
----return true; } This works for us in 3.1. 3.2 has this functionality built in. Paul

Unfortunatly it's rather different in my case. 2 round eyes...what are they talking about... I tried this new method :
function isInformationCollector()
{
return true; } ...whithout any results. I turn paranoïd "Forms don't like me". May I have some help or a link to a tutorial ? Laurent
