[jQuery] Basic question on conditional statements
Hey all,
This is my first post to the community. I'm a total jQuery n00b, and I'm struggling with conditional statements & jQuery. Here's what I'm trying to do:
The page is a form that uses the same template for both add and edit modes. On page load, jQuery should detect whether or not a choice from a radio button selection is checked. Here is the relevant HTML:
<label for="plan"><input type="radio" id="plan" name="coverage" value="Healthcare Plan" checked="checked" /> My <strong>healthcare plan</strong> includes prescription drug benefits.</label>
<label for="medicare"><input type="radio" id="medicare" name="coverage" value="Medicare Part D or Medicaid" /> I am enrolled in either <strong>Medicare Part D</strong> or <strong>Medicaid</strong>.</label>
<label for="hsa"><input type="radio" id="hsa" name="coverage" value="Health Savings Account" /> I have a <strong>Health Savings Account</strong> (HSA) and otherwise plan to pay retail price.</label>
If the first choice is selected on page load, do nothing. If the other two are selected on page load, show/hide certain fields. I have the show/hide stuff working, but I'm struggling with the conditional stuff.
I'm trying to do something like ...
if ($("input[id='plan']").attr('checked').is(false)) {
// show/hide
}
... but, y'know, something that works. ;)
Any help would be much appreciated.
TIA,
NIck
