Newbie...Checkbox on JSP

[hhnova]

I am trying to use 2 checkboxes on my page and have one checked if the other is not. Specs say not to have both checked at the same time. However, that is where I am stuck. I have 2 checkboxes, but can check them both. How do I do one or the other? Code example would be awesome, as this is my first time writing Java code and have 0 experience or exposure!
Thanks!

What you're trying to create are "Radio buttons". In swing you create a CheckboxGroup and pass it to your Checkboxes when you create them.


CheckboxGroup cbg = new CheckboxGroup();
panel.add(new Checkbox("one", cbg, true));
panel.add(new Checkbox("two", cbg, false));
panel.add(new Checkbox("three", cbg, false));
