Multi-Picklist to Check boxes default selecting the first value

[Anonymous]

I have a form that has multi-select fields that I converted to multi-select checkboxes on the landing page using the java scripts shown in one of the Marketo Masters tutorials.  I know the fields are not set to have a default value in SFDC, and I can't find anything on the form that I can change that tells it to have a default value, but it is automatically selecting the first checkbox listed for each question that has this multi-select checkbox format.  

Does anyone know how I can stop this from happening?  I don't want any of the boxes to be checked when prospects come to this page.

Can you show us the code?

Here is the code.

<script language="JavaScript" src="/js/public/jquery-latest.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript">

$jQ = jQuery.noConflict();

$jQ(document).ready(function(){

// replace all multi-select boxes with checkboxes

$jQ("select[multiple]").each(function(){

// firstwrap a div around it

$jQ(this).wrap("<div class='selectWrap'></div>");

// loop over the option tags, add checkboxes for each

$jQ(this).children("option").each(function(){ 

var curVal = $jQ(this).attr("value");

var curText = $jQ(this).text();

//if its selected prep the checked for the insert

if($jQ(this).is(":selected")) {

var curStatus = "checked='checked'";

} else {

var curStatus = "";

}

// if the current value isn't empty,

// insert the checkbox and label

// (uses for='' to make the text clickable)

if(typeof curVal != "undefined") { 

var curCheckInsert = "<br /><label for='" + 

curVal + "Check'>" + curText + "</label><input type='checkbox' id='" + 

curVal + "Check' " + curStatus + 

" value='" + curVal + "' />"; 

}

// add the checkbox to the new div

$jQ(this).parents("div.selectWrap").append(curCheckInsert);

});

//hide the original select box

$jQ(this).addClass("hidden").hide();

});

//add click handler to the new checkboxes

$jQ("div.selectWrap input[type=checkbox]").click(function () { 

//Get the value to match with the selectbox

var checkVal = $jQ(this).attr("value"); 

//if checked, find the sibling select with the same value and make it selected

//otherwise, remove the selected attribute

if($jQ(this).is(":checked")) { 

$jQ(this).siblings("select").children("option[value=" + checkVal + "]").attr("selected","selected");

} else { 

$jQ(this).siblings("select").children("option[value=" + checkVal + "]").removeAttr("selected");

}

});

});

</script>

Yea, i can see where the code should be modified to make them all unchecked, but it's monday morning at 8am and I feel like I got hit by a truck. So instead I wonder if you could go to the landing page, on the top right go to form settings, and uncheck pre-fill. See if that does what you want it to, first, and if not we can look at modifying the code.

Unfortunately, unchecking the pre-fill box didn't work.  😞
