forms.CheckboxSelectMultiple

class CheckboxSelectMultiple [source]

Similar to SelectMultiple, but rendered as a list of check buttons:

<ul>
  <li><input type='checkbox' name='...' ></li>
  ...
</ul>

The outer <ul> container receives the id attribute of the widget, if defined, or BoundField.auto_id otherwise.

Like RadioSelect, you can loop over the individual checkboxes for the widget’s choices. Unlike RadioSelect, the checkboxes won’t include the required HTML attribute if the field is required because browser validation would require all checkboxes to be checked instead of at least one.

When looping over the checkboxes, the label and input tags include for and id attributes, respectively. Each checkbox has an id_for_label attribute to output the element’s ID.
