Hello Davide,<br>
<br>
The problem you're having is with how you must define the parameters in
your field and widget. <br>
<br>
When defining an option widget (single checkox or radio button), the
"Label" field is not used. The instructions for the field (at the top)
say (in english):<br>
<blockquote>For a 'Single on/off checkbox' widget, define the 'off'
value first, then the 'on' value in the <strong>Allowed values</strong>
section. Note that the checkbox will be labeled with the label of the
'on' value.<br>
</blockquote>
So:<br>
<ul>
<li>You must enter two (and only two) parameters in the "Allowed
Values list:" text area</li>
<li>the format of the lines must be "value|label", (and the label of
the first line is effectively ignored).</li>
</ul>
For example, say you wanted:<br>
<ul>
<li>A simple "Yes/No" question for the user</li>
<li>The value returned stored in the database to be "1" or "0",</li>
<li>you want the label to be "Yes" (and the user must select "yes" in
order for the value to be stored to be 1),</li>
</ul>
You should put the following in the Allowed Values section:<br>
<blockquote>0|No<br>
1|Yes<br>
</blockquote>
The weirdness about this format has to do with the way the module
author wanted you to be able to switch the field type from
radio/checkbox to list of radio buttons without having to change
anything except for the "Widget" type in the CCK field definition. <br>
<br>

<pre wrap="">Hi all, I have a problem with CCK (1.6-1) on my new Drupal installation
(5.7).
I can create a Text Single sign on/off field (checkbox or radio button),
but with some errors:
1) The label is not associated to the field. See the two image attached.
2) When I check the field, my check is not stored in the DB so when I
re-edit the node I see that the field is not checked.
Any help ?
