Checkbox selection trouble in request.params

Checkbox selection trouble in request.params

[Randy M]

Hello everyone.

I'm using rack (1.4.1), but it seems cannot receive
checkbox selection value..

 http://localhost/hello.cgi?foo=1&foo=3
 Hello, Rack
 {"foo"=>"3"}

Code below.

 #!ruby
 require "rack"
 class HelloRack
  def call(env)
    req = Rack::Request.new(env)
    return [200, {"Content-Type" => "text/plain"},
             "Hello, Rack\n" +  req.params.inspect  ]
  end
 end
 Rack::Handler::CGI.run HelloRack.new

Could anyone tell me idea?

You've only passed one parameter. The first "foo=1" sets the foo parameter to 1. The second "foo=3" re-assigns foo to 3. If you want two parameters to be passed to your app, you need to define two separate parameters.

correct way to use this:

<input type="checkbox" name="foo[]" value="1"> Item 1
<input type="checkbox" name="foo[]" value="2"> Item 2

note []  after foo

Well, but these HTML checkbox generates that query_string..

 <input type="checkbox" name="foo" value="1"> Item 1
 <input type="checkbox" name="foo" value="2"> Item 2

at Rack, we cannot use these type form field?
