I'm dealing with this specific issue for the first
time.  How do you suggest dealing with the boolean
incompatibility issue?  I can't seem to make
checkboxes work; but I want to keep the pgsql boolean
datatype. Is there a way to change the value input by
checkboxes? Or do I have to go with the text input of
T, F, Y or N?

Thanks,

Andrew Gould
