Adding data depending on checkbox checked or not

Hi there - i have been using the following to add two fields together into one textbox:

PHP Code:


		
			
<html>
 
 <head>
 </head>
 
 <body>
 
 <script language="JavaScript">
 <!--
 function upd(){
 document.a.description.value = "Name" + "\n" + document.a.part1.value + "\n" + "\n" + "Address" + "\n" + document.a.part2.value;
 }
 //-->
 </script>
 
 
 <form name="a">
 <input type="text" name="part1" onKeyUp=upd() size="20"><br>
 <input type="text" name="part2" onKeyUp=upd() size="20"><br>
 <textarea rows="5" name="description" cols="23"></textarea>
 </form>
 
 </body>
 
 </html>

I was wondering, is it possible to implement checkboxes aswell so that if i checked a checkbox called checkbox1 for example, with the value "running" then the value "running" would be added to the textbox where everything gets added to - if the checkbox was unchecked then "running" would be removed again?!

Is this possible? If so, how do i go about doing this?

Thanks

the best way is to have a sepreate function to add on the running or to not add running

for example

_inverseit=false;
//_inverseit=true;
function yesorno() {
if (_inverseit) {return "not ";}
else {return "";}
}

var string="your favorite food is "+yesorno()+"steak";

if _inverseit is set to be true, it will the string will look like this...

your favorite food is not steak

otherwize like this

your favorite food is steak

do you see where im going?

have a function to return text if a checkbox is checked

hope this help
