title: Laravel : send value of check box to controller without posting?
body: <p>I'm using Laravel for my application.</p>
  
  <p>I have made a PRINT button on my HTML page which is simply calling a route, to be able to send it throught DOMPDF to print it to PDF.</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;a href="{{ route('print_overzicht_facturen') }}" class="btn btn-default"&gt;Print&lt;/a&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Now, in my Controller, I would like to get the value of a radio button which has been created in the HTML this way </p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;div class="col-lg-7 selectie"&gt;
      &lt;input type="radio" name="factuur_selectie" id="factuur_selectie" value="1" checked&gt; Alle facturen&amp;nbsp
      &lt;input type="radio" name="factuur_selectie" id="factuur_selectie" value="2"&gt; Betaalde facturen&amp;nbsp;
      &lt;input type="radio" name="factuur_selectie" id="factuur_selectie" value="3"&gt; Onbetaalde facturen
  &lt;/div&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>In my controller I can not find the way to get the value of the checkbox, I suppose because I'm not doing a submit ? </p>
  
  <p>How would I be able to get the value of the radio button please? </p>
  
  <pre><code>public function printFacturen(Request $request){
  
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I already tried three following ways, but it is not working :</p>
  
  <pre><code>$fields = Input::get('factuur_selectie');                
  $value = $request-&gt;get('factuur_selectie');
  $request-&gt;input('factuur_selectie');
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Bestregards,</p>
