How to check a checkbox automaticaly

in Using jQuery UI • 10 years ago

Hello,

I'm using this component http://jqueryui.com/demos/button/#checkbox

I would like to check a checkbox when I'm clicking on a button :

$("#f_button").click(function ()

{

$("#check1").click();

$("#check1").attr('checked', 'checked');

$("#check1").attr('checked', true);

alert('ok');

});

But anything doesn't work !

Could you help me please ?

Try this code. http://jsbin.com/onidu3/5/edit

This will check all buttons in a buttonset. You could easily modify it to check only one box.

Because button basically rewrites the checkbox into a stylized label that is interacted apon by css classes you need to work with the label and the input tag instead of just the input tag.

$this
.addClass("ui-state-active")
.attr("aria-pressed", "true")
.prev().attr("checked", "true");

So here we set the right class onto the label. Change the aria-pressed attribute to true. And then set the original input element which is now hidden and semantically right before the label to checked.
