This is an old example that we made for a presentation that we gave to the Michigan user group. It shows how to check and uncheck checkBoxes in a cfgrid. Once you have a least one item checked, you can remove it from the grid. A confirmation pops up before the action gets executed just in case. Then you need to submit the form to see the results.

Have you ever wondered if it was possible to change the folder icons in the Flash version of cftree? The answer is yes, with a little of workaround.
This example will show you how to change the opened/closed folder icon, the leaf icon, the icon of a specific node, and the default triangles that open and close nodes. Because we need to set the default values before the data is loaded, we cannot change the icons of an already loaded cftee, unless we change each of the nodes one by one.
