totally confused ...

• 1 ) [VB one] I normally use :
  

  response.write request.form("TxtBox1")

  for server side ASP to show the value of the textbox on the submitting
  request form, on my current server / response page.
  
  How can I get this working with a checkbox please
  

  <%
  Dim TempVar
  
  Select Case request.Form.Item("chkFixed.checked")
    Case true
       TempVar= "Hello World !"
    Case false
        TempVar = "Goodbye World !"
  End Select
  
  response.write  TempVar 
  %>

• 2) [Java one] Probably a simple one this ,
  how can I close the current page / window / instance
  of the web browser please ?
  
  I'm trying the following :
  

  close();
  window.close();

  which isn't working.

Thanks all

1. Remember that a checkbox on a web page isn't really an object. I believe you would use:

<input type="checkbox" name="CheckboxName" value="ValueAttribute">

If Request.Form("CheckboxName") = "ValueAttribute" 
'then its checked, else it wasn't

2. window.close(); works for me on IE 5.5. It prompts for confirmation, though. (And it crashed Homesite when I said yes.)
