checkbox has no required property presumably because it has only 2 options: checked and unchecked. yet i would like to put a condition on a checkbox in order not to submit the page if the checbox is not checked.
any ideas?

You need to use Record OnValidate event, like
if ($Component->checkbox->GetValue() <> 1) {
$Component->checkbox->Errors->addError(...);
}

is seems it doesn't work because checkbox is not bound to a database column ...
is there anyway to stop submitting from the client if the checkbox is not checked?

does't matter
I have a Record for Subscribe/Unsubscribe so it depends from Checkbox and it works:
function Header_SubscribeHeader_OnValidate(& $sender)
{
$Header_SubscribeHeader_OnValidate = true;
$Component = & $sender;
$Container = & CCGetParentContainer($sender);
global $Header; //Compatibility
//End Header_SubscribeHeader_OnValidate
//Custom Code @37-2A29BDB7
// -------------------------
if ( strlen($Component->email->GetValue()) && preg_match ("/^[\w\.-]{1,}\@([\da-zA-Z-]{1,}\.){1,}[\da-zA-Z-]+$/", $Component->email->GetText() ) ){
if ($Component->CheckBoxSubscribeMe->GetValue() ) {
SubscribeMe ($Component->email->GetValue(), 1 ); //subscribe
} else {
SubscribeMe ($Component->email->GetValue(), 0 ); //unsubscribe
}
}
// -------------------------
//End Custom Code
return $Header_SubscribeHeader_OnValidate;

hooray ... thanks to your hint i find out another way to do it  i have used indeed the Record validation and I have added the Action Validate minimum value in which i put my checkbox name and 1 as minimum accepted value

btw this code also works for me
//Agreement_OnValidate
if ($Component ->CheckBoxAgree->GetValue() == 0) {
$Component ->CheckBoxAgree->Errors->addError("You should agree with this agreement!");
}

i use ASP .NET with C# 2.0 ... writing code manually didn't work but using that action did the trick ... indeed the code generated is absolutely the same ... perhaps it's a hidden mechanism from .NET that prevents the written code to work properly ... anyway thanks again ...
