[jQuery] working with checkboxes

[jQuery] working with checkboxes


I have a checkbox
<input type="checkbox" id=test>
the $('#test').checked always returns undefined. No matter if checkbox
checked or not...
Is it how it's supposed to be?
I thought that $('#test') will return me the object wrapped so i have
original methods/properties as well as new one that came from JQuery.
Am i mistaken?
Thanks
George.
