I'm sorry but i just can't seem to find any proper tutorial on html::template with checkboxes and radio buttons. How do I actually retain the checked values after a validation of its form elements? Let's say a code snippet from main.pl : 

my @checkboxOptions = ();

for(my $i = 0; $i <= 5; $i++){

my %rowh;

$checkboxStr = "<INPUT TYPE=\"CHECKBOX\" NAME=\"desc_$i\"/>My Descript
+ion ($i)";

$rowh{"CHECKBOX_OPTION"} = $checkboxStr;
push (@checkboxOptions, \%rowh);

}

$template->param("CHECKBOX_HEADER", \@checkboxOptions);

<TMPL_LOOP NAME="CHECKBOX_HEADER">
                
  <TMPL_VAR NAME="CHECKBOX_OPTION">
                
</TMPL_LOOP>

#----------end Is there something i could add inside the checkbox tag that would allow me to retain all the values?
