| I am posting a form to a page and then trying to pick up the value of a
checkbox. But I can't get the syntax right. Can anybody help?
dim blnInboundLead4
blnInboundLead4 = true
if (Request("inboundlead2") = "off") then
blnInboundLead4 = false
end if

Try using Request.Form instead

If the checkbox is not selected, it does not appear in the Form
collection. What you have to do is check for the existence of the key
and set the boolean variable accordingly:
dim blnInboundLead4
if len(Request.Form("inboundlead2")) > 0 then
blnInboundLead4 = true
else
blnInboundLead4 = false
end if

| It worked once I had changed true and false to "true and "false" :
dim blnInboundLead4
if len(Request.Form("inboundlead2")) > 0 then
blnInboundLead4 = "true"
else
blnInboundLead4 = "false"
end if

In which case perhaps your variable name should be strInbound ?
