Grails check checkbox with value same as variable

Hi I have this value that I passed to the gsp 

${d.causalOrganism}

I have this three checkboxes and I want one of them to be checked based on the above value. How can I do so? I tried but doesn't work.

<label for="causalOrganism">Causal Organism:</label>

  Fungi<input type="checkbox" value="Fungi" name="causalOrganism" id="causalOrganism1" onclick="checkOrganism(this.id)"/>
  Bacteria<input type="checkbox" value="Bacteria" name="causalOrganism" id="causalOrganism2" onclick="checkOrganism(this.id)"/>
  Virus<input type="checkbox" value="Virus" name="causalOrganism" id="causalOrganism3" onclick="checkOrganism(this.id)" />

Add the checked attribute to your checkbox based on your desired condition: 

...
Fungi<input type="checkbox" value="Fungi" name="causalOrganism" id="causalOrganism1" onclick="checkOrganism(this.id)" ${(d.causalOrganism == 'causalOrganism1') ? "checked='checked'" : ''}/>
...

You should think about using the grails checkBox. With this you could use the checked attribute directly.
