The correct way to check checkbox on the DOM elements can be done using jQuery .prop or .attr method.
By using JavaScript’s “checked” property, we can solve the problem directly, instead of manipulating the DOM into doing what we want it to do.
To check checkbox see the below script:
After jQuery version 1.6 you can use:
$('.chkID').prop('checked', true);$('.chkID').prop('checked', false);And jQuery version 1.5x and below you can use:
$('.chkID').attr('checked', true);$('.chkID').attr('checked', false);Read: jQuery Checkbox checked property
This plugin will alter the checked property of any DOM elements selected by jQuery, and successfully check or uncheck checkboxes under all circumstances.
