  Things you may want to note: <P>
  
  <UL>
  <LI> By default, checkboxes are off.
  <LI> When the query is packaged up, off checkboxes are ignored
       completely and on checkboxes are given the values specified by
       the <CODE>VALUE</CODE> attribute in each <CODE>INPUT</CODE> tag.
  <LI> Multiple checkboxes can have the same <CODE>NAME</CODE>, if
       desired.
  <LI> Checkboxes are very similar in use and interpretation on the
       server side to text entry fields.
  <LI> Checkboxes are "n of many": Any number of them can be on or off
       at any time.  (The alternative scheme, "one of many", in which
       only one out of a group of several toggle buttons can be on, is
       not yet supported by Mosaic.)
  </UL>
