Grouping of check bok

Question

Hi all,
We know that a set of Radio buttons can be grouped together.
// Configure the radio buttons as a group by 1) assigning them all the
// same name and 2) assigning values to each radio button.
OAMessageRadioButtonBean appleButton =
(OAMessageRadioButtonBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("GroupButtonOne");
appleButton.setName("fruitRadioGroup");
appleButton.setValue("APPLES");
OAMessageRadioButtonBean orangeButton =
(OAMessageRadioButtonBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("GroupButtonTwo");
orangeButton.setName("fruitRadioGroup");
orangeButton.setValue("ORANGES");
We can then obtain the selected radio button in your processFormRequest() as follows:
String radioGroupValue = pageContext.getParameter("fruitRadioGroup");
Now my requirement is to do the same with Check boxes (Even though it falters the basic idea of check box).
Can we group Check boxes together with the same logic as for Radio buttons?
Regards,
Santhosh.

Hi Reetesh,
As I have mentioned earlier, the customer needs an UI with a Group of check box. Just for the Look and Feel. :(
I have already suggested them to go for a Radio button.
Meanwhile I am trying the above method suggested by Anand.
