Please help me on this in providing the code

-----------Here is my code for creation of checkbox before every row-----------

DEFINE FILE CAR
ID1/I5 WITH MODEL =LAST ID1 + 1;
AID1/A5 = FPRINT(ID1, 'I5' , 'A5');
AID2/A5 = TRIM('L', AID1, 5, ' ', 1, 'A5');
CB/A100 = '';
END

TABLE FILE CAR
HEADING
"Car Report checkbox"
" "
PRINT
CB AS ''
'CAR.ORIGIN.COUNTRY'
'CAR.COMP.CAR'
'CAR.CARREC.MODEL'
'CAR.BODY.BODYTYPE'

ON TABLE HOLD FORMAT AHTMLTAB AS REPORT2
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
TYPE=HEADING, SIZE=20, STYLE=BOLD,COLOR=GREEN, $
ENDSTYLE
END
-RUN

-HTMLFORM BEGIN
!IBI.OBJ.ACTIVEREPORTJS;

<script>
function showCheckedItems() {
var _allCbxs = document.getElementsByTagName("input");
var _length = _allCbxs.length;
var _params = "";

for (var i=0; i < _length; i++) {
if (_allCbxs[i].type == "checkbox" && _allCbxs[i].checked) {
_params += "&" + "Car Model ID=" + _allCbxs[i].id;
}
}

alert("The following Boxes are checked:\n\n" + _params);
}



!IBI.FIL.REPORT2;

Yes, this you can achieve using Java script. Create on select event on the check box and pass the checkbox value to another fex file which plots the graph.

Thanks,

There is a large difference between a box character, and a check-box control.

Hi Praneeth

Make a drilldow on the checkbox in the procedure that calls a JAVASCRIPT function (parent.function_name). Then you can pass the parameters to the function. The function can then set the controls with the passed parameter and run the graph.

drilldown:
TYPE=REPORT,
column=n1,
JAVASCRIPT=parent.setControls( \
N1 \
N2 \
N3 \
),
$


function setControls(cnty, car, model){

// This is the preferrered method to use
IbComposer_setCurrentSelection('listbox1', cnty, true);
IbComposer_setCurrentSelection('listbox2', car, true);
IbComposer_setCurrentSelection('listbox3', model, false);

IbComposer_execute('report1');
}

Thanks Barry

This is asking someone to do job for you which I think be not correct.

Many helpful hints I have found here but I do not expect anyone to do all code for me.

As you are doing active HTML then the options be there for you so I think you just want to control filtering before graphing. To do this I be looking at what code being generated and try to apply what has been suggest above.
