checkbox

Name

checkbox — return user-supplied value if its length is 1 or more, an empty string otherwise

DESCRIPTION

The filter checks for the length of input. In case the input contains one or more characters (a true number, in fact), it returns the input itself. If the length is zero, an empty string is returned.

The filter is suitable for retrieving values out of HTML checkboxes.

EXAMPLES

No examples are available at this time. We do consider this a problem and will try to supply some.
