matt,

:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
: From: Warden, Matt

: Why are you decrementing the variable
: numberChecked if the checkbox isn't checked?
: Wouldn't it just stay the same, unless the
: checkbox is checked (in which case it would
: increment)?
:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

let's say i check 10 boxes and realize that there was another choice of the
one's that aren't checked that should be part of the 10.  the numberChecked
variable has been incremented to 10.  so, in order to reflect the true
number of boxes checked, you'd have to decrement that count when a box is
unchecked.

make more sense?
