as.data.frame() will replace any spaces in the list names with a .. The resulting column names in checkbox_result will therefore no longer match those in field_info.
Finally, this snippet discards the correct columns (with the fixed names), and retains only the all-FALSE columns (with the original names).
All of this can be fixed by calling as.data.frame() with the check.names = FALSE argument, to force the original names to be retained. Because there's "data" contained within the names here (i.e. which checkbox was ticked), automatically fixing them to be proper columns names might not be a good idea here.
I've confirmed this fixes the issue for me, but it might have other unwanted downstream effects I can't oversee (like not being able to subset the data frame columns with $ without enclosing them in backticks, as the column names may now have spaces in them).
Proposed fix for #46.
