Hi,
Sacha Chua made a nice hack to export checkboxes as unicode symbols to
HTML here:
http://sachachua.com/blog/2014/03/emacs-tweaks-export-org-checkboxes-using-utf-8-symbols/?shareadraft=baba27119_533313c944f64
(defun sacha/org-html-checkbox (checkbox)
"Format CHECKBOX into HTML."
(case checkbox (on "<span class=\"check\">☑</span>") ;
checkbox (checked)
(off "<span class=\"checkbox\">☐</span>")
(trans "<code>[-]</code>")
(t "")))
(defadvice org-html-checkbox (around sacha activate)
(setq ad-return-value (sacha/org-html-checkbox (ad-get-arg 0))))
Thanks Sacha.

There is also:
(setq org-html-checkbox-type 'unicode)
You need a recent Org, though (maybe development version, I didn't check).

I didn't apply it in maint, so it's only in master.
BTW, i used "[ ]" for the unchecked box (we use the same for
checked and trans)... I think i'll change the unchecked box to ☐
to match the checked box (same as sachua).

Isn't it error-prone and very misleading to have 3 different states in
the Org files, and just 2 different in the HTML exports?

There *are* three different states in the exported file -- the
"transient" mode is for partially completed rollups:
#+BEGIN_SRC org
,* rollup
- [-] All done
- [X] one
- [ ] two
#+END_SRC
Generates (abbreviated and indented):
#+BEGIN_SRC html
<ul class="org-ul">
<li><code>[-]</code> All done
<ul class="org-ul">
<li><code>[X]</code> one
</li>
<li><code>[ ]</code> two
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
#+END_SRC

OK, excellent! Sorry for my misunderstanding.
Best regards,

Wouldn't it be better to have (maybe in addition) three distinct
classes for the <li> elements with checkboxes in various states? This
would make styling them with CSS possible.

Nice idea. I'll look at adding classes to each (checked, or transient)
=li=. I think that the use of classes is minimal due to the orginal
stand-alone (inline css) nature of the html exporter. I certainly
agree that more modern html output is desireable, but it's a big
project...

The =<li>= elements for checklists now have the class `on', `off' or
`trans' depending on the state of the checkbox.
Thanx for the suggestion.
