checkBox
Purpose
Creates a checkbox form field. All the usual HTML elements apply.
Examples
<g:checkBox name="myCheckbox" value="${true}" />Description
Attributes
name - The name of the checkboxvalue (optional) - The value of the checkboxchecked (optional) - Expression if evaluates to true sets to checkbox to checked
The checkBox tag typically only requires the name and value attributes and will infer whether the checkbox should be checked or not from the value. However, if you need to override this behaviour the checked attribute can be used for fine grained control.Source
