[SOLVED] Checkbox: If yes selected then no un-selected and vice versa

Applications Forms
#1

I have a field with manual select checkbox. Y = 1, N = 0. I want to change the behavior of the checkbox. If yes is selected then obviously no can’t be selected too. However, the nature of check boxes in SC allows this. What I need is if I click the yes and then the no the yes unchecks and vice versa. I’ve tried this javascript but it seems to be malformed.

var checkboxes = document.querySelectorAll('input[type=checkbox]');
if (checkboxes[0].checked = true;)
	{
	checkboxes[1].checked = false;
	}
elseif (checkboxes[1].checked = true;)
	{
	checkboxes[0].checked = false;
	}

Hi,
it sounds what you are trying to do is to mimic a radio/options button.
So why don’t you just have a look at the field type ‘Radio’ and see if you can get the result you want.

Thanks, can’t believe I didn’t think of that. Don’t use radio button that often and forgot about them. sorry for wasting forum space :slight_smile:

I have a tendency to over think things sometimes.
