[CLOSED] Multi-select checkbox in HTML pass to another HTML with same mult-select

Is it possible to have a fex (within an HTML page) pass the selections chosen to another HTML page? For example: I have a check box list of locations on one HTML page and the same check box list of locations on another HTML page. A fex on the first HTML page can drill to the second HTML but I want the check boxes to remain checked. I hope this makes sense.

This depends on how the second HTML page is being created.

Is it a drill down, does it already exist, etc.

Collect the parameter values in DM variables and use

-HTMLFORM

to build the same page again. Here is the code snippet of the FEX.

-DEFAULT &CHK_1='';
-DEFAULT &CHK_2='';
-SET &CHK_1=IF &INPUT_CHK_1 EQ 1 THEN 'CHECKED' ELSE '';
-SET &CHK_2=IF &INPUT_CHK_2 EQ 2 THEN 'CHECKED' ELSE '';
.
.
-HTMLFORM BEGIN
.
.
<BODY>
<INPUT TYPE='CHECKBOX' NAME='INPUT_CHK_1' VALUE=1 &CHK_1>
<INPUT TYPE='CHECKBOX' NAME='INPUT_CHK_2' VALUE=2 &CHK_2>
<BR>
.
.
-HTMLFORM END

Hope this helps.
