VERSION
version 0.35005
DESCRIPTION
This field is very similar to the Boolean Widget except that this field
allows other positive values besides 1. Since unselected checkboxes do
not return a parameter, fields with Checkbox type will always be set to
the 'input_without_param' default if they do not appear in the form.

checkbox
checkbox_value
In order to create the HTML for a checkbox, there must be a
'value="xx"'. This value is specified with the 'checkbox_value'
attribute, which defaults to 1.
input_without_param
If the checkbox is not checked, it will be set to the value of this
attribute (the unchecked value). Default = 0. Because unchecked
checkboxes do not return anything in the HTTP parameters, the absence
of a checkbox key in the parameters hash forces this field to this
value. This means that Checkbox fields, unlike other fields, will not
be ignored if there is no input. If a particular checkbox should not be
processed for a particular form, you must set 'inactive' to 1 instead.
