putting a checkbox in a column of markupadmindatatable, outputted a plain text

[adrianmak]

I'm building a form with a markupadmindatatable, one of column is a checkbox for each row, selection for deletion.

      $out .= "<form action='save' method='post'>";

        $table = $this->modules->get("MarkupAdminDataTable");
        $table->headerRow(["Name", "Email", "Subject", "Content"]);
	
        
        $listing = $this->pages->get(1024)->children();
        foreach($listing as $p) {

            $checkbox = "<input name='guestbook[]' id='guestbook_{$p->id}' value='{$p->id}' type='checkbox'>";
            $data = array(
                $p->title=>$config->urls->admin."../page/edit/?id=".$p->id,
                $p->g_email,
                $p->g_subject,
                $p->g_content,
                $checkbox
            );
            $table->row($data);
        }               
        
        $out .= $table->render();
    
        $out .= "<button class='ui-button ui-widget ui-corner-all head_button_clone ui-state-default' name='submit_delete_field' value='Delete' type='submit'><span class='ui-button-text'>Delete</span></button>";
        $out .= "</form>";
        return $out;

maybe you need this?

$table->setEncodeEntities(false);

another minor  problem is, I out the checkbox prior of the name

$checkbox.$p->title=>$config->urls->admin."../page/edit/?id=".$p->id,

However, the outputted markup, the input checkbox is wrapped by anchor link,

the result is clicking the checkbox will redirect to page edit.

How could i display the checkbox out of the anchor link

This is MarkupAdminDataTable's expected behavior (wrapping the value in a link to the key) if you pass an associative entry to row(), so you'll have to build the complete HTML snippet for the column manually. Or, even better, make the checkbox and the link separate columns.
