 How to make the check box as required field using apex code?I tried with Required="true".But it is not working.The user should navigate to the next page only when the check box is checked.
Can anyone provide the solution?

dchasmandchasman
There are a couple of issues with your approach. First, client side validation for this kind of thing is basically useless - totally trivial to go around your check in any number of ways. Second the way you are using the action attribute on apex:commandButton is not going to hit the server and will there never invoke the server side requiredness checks.

I'll workup an example that shows how to handle this in a bit but one question I have for you is how you intend to insure that this affirmation page is always presented and presented once and only once since it appears that you are not persisting the results (e.g. in a custom object).?

Here is an example of how I would handle this:

Code:
<apex:page controller="spptc">
<br/><b>Terms and Conditions</b><br/><br/>
<hr/>
<apex:form id="theForm">
    <apex:pageMessages />
    <center><u><b><font color="blue">Print Terms and Conditions</font></b></u></center><br/><br/>
    <center><textarea rows="1" cols="100" readOnly="true">PLEASE READ CAREFULLY. These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") govern your access...</textarea></center><br/>
    <center><apex:inputCheckbox id="box1" value="{!accepted}" required="true"/><b>I accept these terms and conditions</b></center><br/>
    <center>
        <apex:commandButton action="{!acceptTerms}" value="Submit" rerender="theForm"/>
        <input type="button" value="Cancel" class="btnClass"/>
    </center>
</apex:form>
</apex:page>

 
Code:
public class spptc {
    public boolean accepted { get; set; }

    public PageReference acceptTerms() {
        if (accepted) {
            return new PageReference('/home/home.jsp');
        } else {
            ApexPages.addMessage(new ApexPages.Message(ApexPages.Severity.FATAL, 'You must accept the Terms and Conditions to continue'));
            return null;
        }
    }


    public PageReference cancel() {
        // Not sure what you want to do here???
return null; } }

I am getting the following error when i click on the Submit button

System.NullPointerException: Attempt to de-reference a null object

dchasmandchasman
I am not seeing that error with my demo page/controller - I did make one modification to the controller to return a relative page ref to /home/home.jsp instead of an absolute ref.
Arvind010Arvind010
I tried the code what you provided me in the previous reply.I am getting error.I did not understand the following line in the code
public boolean accepted { get; set; }

I have one more question.
How to display a pop up window or message box using apex code in visualforce page after clicking a button?
Arvind010Arvind010
I used the code what you have provided.The problem what i am facing is, when i click on Submit button without
checking the checkbox,it is not navigating to the next page,it remains in the same page without displaying the
Warning message.When i select the Checkbox,it is working properly.

Can you please provide me the solution?
