title: Struts html:checkbox query
body: <p>I have the following code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;td&gt; &lt;html:checkbox name="userForm" property="isActive" /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>In the form I have a property called <code>isActive</code> of type <code>char</code>, how would I get the checked value?  I am getting some symbols like <code>o</code> if checked. </p>
  
  <p>I am using userform.getIsActive().  Where am I going wrong?  I want 'y' or 'n' values.</p>
