checkbox in server control modified or not page.request question

[ton]

Hi,
I have a checkbox in a webserver control.

Al modified fields (textboxes, dropdownlists, and checkboxes) will be
examnied during a save method. In which I use:
aa= Page.Request(Replace(ClientID, "_", "$") & "$Check" & i &
ClientID).ToString
aa = Page.Request(Replace(ClientID, "_", "$") & "$Text" & i &
ClientID).ToString
aa = Page.Request(Replace(ClientID, "_", "$") & "$Combo" & i &
ClientID).ToString

in which I use page.request(name of control) to see what is changed

I recieve an "on" if the checkbox is checked, bt nothing if it is set to
off. Offcourse I can values by getting the exact field using:
dbCheck = FindControl("Check" & i & ClientID, 0) and that checking the
dbCheck.checked value

but then I would execute an update statement whether it is or is not changed

please help

This is expected. When a checkbox is unchecked , checkbox values are not
sent to the server...

You may want to post about the source problem as it doesn't seem switching
from the usual ASP.NET programming model to manually using Request.Form
would solve the problem you seems to have (you want to know if the user
updated at least one of those 3 fields I'm not sure how using Request.Form
rather than a Checkbox control would solve this ?)

use UniqueID instead of ClientID to look values in the Request. the browser
will only postback a checkbox or radio button value if they are checked. so
you can tell its not checked because its not postback collection.
