I have seen examples with and without an 's' and tried both, but still no luck.
I looked at the source code and the values are correct.

try removeing the array referance and just use a flat out scalar.

i know the array ref can be used as a scalar but do it the long way first then try and shorten it.

in my CGI programming with Perl book i only see this for checkboxes.

Code:
<INPUT TYPE="checkbox" NAME="Toppings" VALUE="onion" CHECKED>Onion<BR>

check out the docs for checkbox_group @ http://www.perldoc.com/perl5.8.0/lib...TED-CHECKBOXES


what is the exact error you get when you run your CGI script?

check your apache/logs/error.log file.

if its not working there has to be an error. OR.... your not populateing the array. put in a little forloop (right befor where your checkbox_group section is to print out the contents of your array ref.

do you have warnings turned on?

btw is this a typo on purpose?
'studenten_in_groep'



lastly use the code brackets and past your perl script.

The array i use for defaults is the same as the array for values. So i am sure that it is populated..

Warnings turned on, but nothing about this problem. The defaults option seems to be ignored completely. I can give it any value i want, either in a scalar or an array reference, it doesn't seem to do anything.

"studenten_in_groep" is just the name of the group.

What do you mean with that last comment?
