Problem regarding radio buttons and check boxes

[redshadow]

Hi,
Can anyone explain why do CF can't see form fields for radio buttons and check boxes when the user did not click on it, and help me how to get around this thing pls.?

for example: I have a cfm file entry.cfm that contains the form tag <input type=&quot;radio&quot; name=&quot;test&quot;>, when submit is hit it gives an error message that states the form field is not declared.

the reason CF can't see form fields that the user did not click on is because the browser doesn't send those fields

i use CFPARAM to make sure all form fields have a default

the default logic depends on what the radio button or checkbox is supposed to be doing
