Using checkboxes in an application

[spsuffern]

I am using a checkbox to filter completed transactions. I have added the controller event and I can see in the chrome inspector network tab that the request headers on the vvvcall.pgm are returning either "true" or "false". I coded my RPGLE pgm to receive the header, but it didn't work. I ran the service job debug and I am not getting any data returned in statement below. Do I need to use "vvIn_boolean" or some other method?

Query String Parameters:
pgm: NOCSTRACE
action: getRecs
begdate: 2018-11-16
enddate: 2018-12-12
customer: 11143
showrelease: false

monitor;                                  
 showrelease  = vvIn_char('showreleased');
   on-error;                              
    showrelease = 'false';                
   endmon;

Looks like a typo in your code to me... Your front-end is passing "showrelease" while your back-end is looking for "showreleased"...

Generally speaking, vvIn_boolean() is a good route to go as it checks for true, on, 1, etc.

Thank you for your help. It always helps to have a 2nd set of eyes....
