Check a checkbox with jQuery

Hi,

can you help me with a script to check/tick a checkbox with jQuery. I’m not checking it with $(‘.myCheckbox’).prop(‘checked’, true);

It does tick the checkbox but unfortunately does not “submit” the checked value and show the results. tnx

Hmmm that should work, maybe I’m not using prop in S&F (which I know is the right way).

Try adding $(‘.myCheckbox’).prop(‘checked’, 'checked');

Thanks

Tnx for the quick reply, I appreciate that.

i was probably not clear. The checkbox is checked now but the form is not updated with the results. When i hit the submit button, the results are fine. However, I would like to see the results immediately like any other checkboxes/input fields.

I’ve tried the following:

(“input[value=’myCheckbox’]”).prop(‘checked’, ‘checked’);
$(‘input[type=submit]’).click();

but the the value of the submit is not reflected in the results. It looks like only the submit is processed.
