checkbox list from loop - how to set a default?

[jarvis]

Hi All,

 

I've a loop which lists a series of options as checkboxes. What I'd like to do is set 1 as a default. But I've no idea how to do it!?

 

Here's the code:

<?php $i = 0; ?>
<?php if ( bp_has_groups() ) : while ( bp_groups() ) : bp_the_group(); ?>
<input type="checkbox" id="field_reg_groups_<?php echo $i; ?>" name="field_reg_groups[]" value="<?php bp_group_id(); ?>" /><?php bp_group_name(); ?>
<?php } ?>
<?php $i++; ?>

Any help is much appreciated

 

TIA

starting a while loop in a tertiary operator. does that work??

The whole block of code is

				<?php $i = 0; ?>
			<?php if ( bp_has_groups() ) : while ( bp_groups() ) : bp_the_group(); ?>
				<?php if ( bp_get_group_status() == ('public' || 'private')) { ?>
				<li class="reg_groups_item">
					<input type="checkbox" id="field_reg_groups_<?php echo $i; ?>" name="field_reg_groups[]" value="<?php bp_group_id(); ?>" /><?php bp_group_name(); ?>
				</li>
				<?php } ?>
			<?php $i++; ?>
			<?php endwhile; /* endif; */ ?>
			<?php else: ?>
			<p class="reg_groups_none">No selections are available at this time.</p>
			<?php endif; ?>

it does the job

So does this mean it's possible?
