What is the best way to add a multiple choice option to the add link page?
I tried adding checkboxes, radion buttons and multi select combo box but none of the had the desired effect.
Here's how i would like it to work if I want people to list the facilities of an hotel
Facilities: Bar. = Yes; Restaurant = No; Laundry = Yes and so on
I can see how I can do it as seperate fields with just Yes - No but not as one multiple choice one. Some cases may not be a simple Yes or No but have other options also.
I am probably just not using them right. I want several choices to show (on the details page - I am not having any problem with what they display on the add link page). When I set up 4 or 5 checkbox options only 1 answer showed on the details page

Found that it was generating some ugly HTML for multiselectors and isn't showing the selections on edit. Will get this resolved tomorrow.

Checkboxes seem to work fine already, what problem are you having with them? Fixed comboboxes for 4.1.9.

You'd display the answers like this:
<IF {LINKCHECKED[multicheck <,> op1]}>checked op1</IF><IF {LINKCHECKED[multicheck <,> op2]}>checked op2</IF>
<IF {LINKCHECKED[multicheck <,> op3]}>checked op3</IF>
<IF {LINKCHECKED[multicheck <,> op4]}>checked op4</IF>
