The HTML Form - Radio Button and Checkbox Input Tags - 3

Checkbox Input Tag

The checkbox input tag works in the same way as the radio button input tag with two exceptions. The name attribute will be set to “checkbox” which will create one check box for each input tag on the web form. Secondly, where the radio input tag will not allow two radio buttons in the group to be selected at the same time, the checkbox input tag is used when you want your readers to be able to select more then one.
