Body
I'm creating a checkbox in a view: <pre><code>Form::checkbox('test', 'true', Input::old('test', true)); </code></pre> After unchecking the box, submitting the form and being redirected back: <pre><code>return Redirect::back()->withInput()->withErrors($validation); </code></pre> The checkbox is still checked - presumably because <code>'test'</code> doesn't exist in <code>"Input::old"</code> so it is reverting back to the default value. Any suggestions on how best to achieve this? Edit: I've come up with a somewhat hacky way of getting the results I want: <pre><code>$isChecked = true; // The default state // Check if the form has been returned "withInput" if(Input::old()) { $isChecked = Input::old('test', false); // If the field has old data available use that, otherwise it is unchecked } echo Form::checkbox('test', 'true', $isChecked); </code></pre> I'll write this into a function for reuse, but it seems a bit painful so any comments/suggestions would be great Edit 2 Sorry if not clear - to clarify: <ol> <li>Form is loaded with checkbox checked</li> <li>I uncheck the checkbox and submit the form</li> <li>The form doesn't validate so I'm returned to the form</li> <li>The checkbox has re-checked itself - I would expect it to be unchecked, as per the user submitted data</li> </ol> I assume this happens because if a checkbox isn't checked the element isn't included in the post data

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
