I have a web page showing all the photos with locations held in a database with a checkbox next to each 1 and a button at the bottom. I am trying to get it so when the user clicks the button all the checkboxes that are checked delete the photos location held in the databse and photo from the server. But with the code below it never gets in to the if statement " if (PhotoChk.Checked == true)" beacuse for some reason no matter wot checkboxes are checked it never detects them as being checked. If I change the if (PhotoChk.Checked == true) to if (PhotoChk.Checked == false) it deletes all the photos reqardless of wots boxes are checked. Can any help me I am a noob to this and can't work out why its not workeing cheers
