[ILUG] [OT] HTML checkboxes - can they be resized?

[Justin MacCarthy]

No the can't be.

What you can't do is something like (untested) :


function changeimage()
{

if ckbox.value ==1 
	ckbox.value = 0;
	imagechkbox.src= "uncheckedimage.gif";
else
	ckbox.value = 1
	imagechkbox.src= "checkedimage.gif";
}

<input type="hidden" name="ckbox">

<img src="uncheckedimage.gif" onclick="changeimage()" name="imagechkbox">
