2 things:

1) to get the attribute of the inner input use children http://api.jquery.com/children/

2) to get the text or html use .text or .html api

codE

 $(document).ready(function() {
        $('.checkbox').click(function(){
            var  $text2=$(this);
             alert($text2.text());
            alert($text2.children('#ctl01').attr('name'));
        });
    });​
