copied!<p>I am using <strong>Play!Framework 2.1.0</strong>, below is the solution :</p> <p><strong>1. In the scala template, you must give all checkbox name like this:</strong></p> <pre class="lang-scala prettyprint-override"><code>@form(action = routes.Application.newPaper()) { @inputText(paperForm("title")) @******* Indexed chekbox name *********@ @for((t, index) <- topics.zipWithIndex) { <input type="checkbox" name="topics[@index]" value="@t">@t <br> } <input type="submit" value="Create"> } </code></pre> <p><strong>2. Then in your controller, as an action to handle form submit, you should doing something like this</strong> :</p> <pre class="lang-java prettyprint-override"><code>public static Result newPaper() { // Bind submitted form value to your model, ex. Paper.java Form<Paper> paperForm = Form.form(Paper.class).bindFromRequest(); Paper paper = paperForm.get(); Logger.info("Title entered = " + paper.title); // Because in template we use indexed name, unchecked item are binded with null value paper.topics.removeAll(Collections.singleton(null)); // remove value for unchecked topic for (String t : paper.topics) { Logger.info("The topic is " + t); } Logger.info("Total topic selected = " + paper.topics.size()); return redirect(routes.Application.index()); // redirect page } </code></pre> <hr> <h3>UPDATE</h3> <p>This is <strong>another idea</strong> to the solution. Your checkbox code on scala template is <strong>not modified</strong>. </p> <pre class="lang-scala prettyprint-override"><code>@for(t <- topics) { <input type='checkbox' name='topic' value=@t>@t <br> } </code></pre> <p>So the <strong>controller</strong> should be like this :</p> <pre class="lang-java prettyprint-override"><code>public static Result newPaper() { // Bind submitted form value to your model, ex. Paper.java Form<Paper> paperForm = Form.form(Paper.class).bindFromRequest(); Paper paper = paperForm.get(); // get request value from submitted form Map<String, String[]> map = request().body().asFormUrlEncoded(); String[] checkedVal = map.get("topic"); // get selected topics // assign checked value to model paper.topics = Arrays.asList(checkedVal); // for debugging purpose for (String t : paper.topics) { Logger.info("The topic is " + t); } Logger.info("Total topic selected = " + paper.topics.size()); return redirect(routes.Application.index()); // redirect page } </code></pre> <p>Hope this idea is more elegant.. :)</p> <p>Note: I have tested on Play!Framework 2.1.1 too, and that is work for me.</p>
