Heya! Im having real problems with a checkbutton. I cant get it to set to on when the page loads without it looking like a button!

I also cannot figure out how to make it respoind to a variable, i.e.

$variable = "1";

So i would expect the $variable when implemented somewhere in a checkbutton to turn it on, however i have gone over all the commands and i just cannot find the correct way to do this!

Also, I wonder if anyone could tell me if im correct in assuming the variable the check button is (i.e. my $chkbutt = $window->checkbutton()) is the valkue of the button when it comes to using it. I.e. if the ubtton is selected, $chkbutt = "1"!

Thanks!
