I am new to Cq5. I have a checkbox in my dialog box and I want to get its boolean value in my jsp when the user selects or deselects it. Support with
It works for me
Properties for the dialog box:
name: ./checkbox1 type: checkbox xtype: selection
the code:
boolean isChecked1 = properties.get("checkbox1", false);
If you want to get the value from your JSP component, do the following:
boolean foobar = properties.get("nameOfYourCheckbox", true);
You can specify a default value using true / false as the second argument.
Hope this helps.
Each widget that you add in the components dialog is stored in CRX as a property for cq: Component node. All of these properties can be obtained in jsp by typing properties. in EL brackets (for example:) ${properties.<name_of_property>}. Remember to include the /libs/foundation/global.jsp file in your jsp.
${properties.<name_of_property>}
