Checkbox not an input?

Checkbox not an input?

Here is a function:

  1.     $(document).ready(function () {
  2.         $("input.commentBox").click(function () {
  3.             if ($(this).closest('div.editor-field2').children('input:checked').val() == "True") {
  4.                 $(this).closest('div.formQuestion').children('div.hidden').slideDown(800);
  5.             } else {
  6.                 $(this).closest('div.formQuestion').children('div.hidden').slideUp("fast");
  7.             }           
  8.         });
  9.     });
It works great if the input item is a radio button, but if I change it to a checkbox with the same class name .commentBox it no longer works.  Can someone esplain to me way?

Thank you for reading my post.
