About

Better Exposed Filters (BEF) modifies the use of Views by replacing the 'single' or 'multi' select boxes with radio buttons or checkboxes. Views offers the ability to expose filters to the end user. When you expose a filter, you allow the user to interact with the view making it easy to build an advanced search. Better Exposed Filters gives you greater control over the rendering of exposed filters. For more information, see the online documentation for the Better Exposed Filters module.

Uses

Editing or Creating Views
Better Exposed Filters is used on Views that use an exposed filter. Views filters are used to reduce the result set of a View to a manageable amount of data. BEF only operates on fields that have a limited number of options such as Node:Type or Taxonomy:TermID.
Styling Better Exposed Filters
BEF provides some additional HTML structure to help you style your exposed filters. For some common examples see the online documentation.
