Multi insert on table with checkbox list

Question

Hi all,
I've a problem perhaps it's a small one but I need to do an insert on a table with with the use of a checkbox, however the checkbox retrieves multiple values.
Which I've tried to insert with a loop in the pl/sql block.
How exactly can I do that using bind variables ? Can I get an example, please?
using Apex 4.0
kind regards,
Cleo

Hi,
what are you trying to do ? Are you inserting a line only a checkbox is checked, or are your trying to save the values of a group of checkboxes ?
I got an example for deleting a line with a checked checkbox :
In your process
DECLARE
   va_val APEX_APPLICATION_GLOBAL.vc_arr2;
BEGIN
  va_val := APEX_UTIL.string_to_table(:P20_PARAMETRES, ',');
FOR i IN 1..va_val.count LOOP
    DELETE MY_TABLE WHERE ID = va_val(i);
END LOOP;
:P20_PARAMETRES := '';
END;In your page header (javascript)
function delete(){
   if(confirm('Do you really want to delete the checked options ?')){
   var param = document.getElementById('P20_PARAMETRES');
   var root = 'f20_';
   var i = 1;
   var id;
   do{
     id = root + i;
     obj = document.getElementById(id);
     if((obj != undefined) && (obj != null)){
        if(obj.checked == true){
           if (param.value == ''){
             param.value = obj.value;
           } else {
             param.value = param.value + ',' + obj.value;
   i++;
   }while((document.getElementById(id) != undefined) && (document.getElementById(id) != null));
doSubmit('BTN_DELETE');
}In your report your column must be something like this:
apex_item.checkbox (20,
                           a.id,
                           NULL,
                           NULL,
                           'f20_' || '#ROWNUM#'
                          ) delete_checkboxThat way I delete only those who has been checked. You can do that or try
FOR i in 1..APEX_APPLICATION.G_F01.COUNT LOOP
END LOOP;But I'm not sure how you notice those who are checked or not that way.. If I remember clearly, it only store those who are checked...
