A way to create an empty list when no checkboxes are selected. about form2js HOT 2 OPEN

This can be achieved by using the nodeCallback option:

nodeCallback:function(node){
  var name = node.getAttribute ? node.getAttribute('name') : null;
  // if the node is named and has the value "[]"
  if(name && node.value === "[]")
    return { name: name, value: [] }; // change value to empty array
  return false;
}

Still wish I didn't have to add the hidden field...

Is there really no better way than doing this? I was wondering why {skipEmpty:false} wasn't picking up an empty set of checkboxes. What a pain.
