Passing value from form/post into controller's IF

Greetings, 

 

We need to kick off a function (send update e-mail) based upon the checkbox status of a checkbox on an Apex form/page. However, it doesn't seem to be working right... is my code correct? Thanks for suggestions!

 

Apex Page Code:

 

 

<br>Check to send colleagues a notification e-mail when I save:			 
 
 
<apex:inputCheckbox value="{!Sendmails}" id="emailvalue"/>
 
 
 
 
 
 
Relevant Apex Controller Code:
 
 
private string Sendmails;
 
public string getSendmails() { 	
	return Sendmails; }
 
public void setSendmails(string v) {	sendmails = v;	}
	... 
public  PageReference save()       
	{   
		if (sendMails == '1') {		   
			try{ // code here }
		}
	} 
 
 
 Thanks again!
--Dave

It may be because you have a private property, but public getter/setter for it.  I seem to recall having problems with this.  Try making your property public or changing its name.

Ah -- all set. The value of an apex:inputCheckbox is True or False, not 0 or 1.
