You can include anything to a repeater  if you want. If you want to
simply create 100 checkboxes, a repeater would be ideal for this.



Basically a repeater is a great way to duplicate functionality for
multiple objects, whether it is simply looping through a list and
printing it, creating check boxes, or a combination if you want a list
with checkboxes so you have some functionality behind it. It doesn't
just have to be for static content, it just seems that it what the bulk
of people use it for, but it doesn't have to be, if that makes sense?
