Syphon.deserialize issue with checkboxes

[diasjorge]

If you want to deserialize a model into multiple checkboxes it doesn't behave correctly.

For instance if you have a model like:

{languages: ['en']}

and a form:

<input name="languages[]" type="checkbox" value="en">
<input name="languages[]" type="checkbox" value="fr">

Then syphon will check both checkboxes.

Our current solution is to only check the checkboxes that actually match on the value like:

Backbone.Syphon.InputWriters.register("checkbox", function ($el, value) {
    if (_.isArray(value)) {
        if (_.contains(value, $el.val())) {
            $el.prop("checked", true)
        }
    } else {
       $el.prop("checked", value)
    }
})

@diasjorge Sorry this wasn't addressed sooner. It has now been marked critical.

Hi @diasjorge I'm going to close this one as a duplicate of #25

Thanks for your hint around the InputWriter
