Question

I have a jQuery selector that looks like this …

$("input:checkbox").click(function(event) {
  // DO STUFF HERE
}

Everything was working well until I was asked to add another checkbox that has nothing to do with the original checkboxes. How do I create a selector for all checkboxes except for one? Thank you.

Answer 1

$('input:checkbox:not("#thatCheckboxId")').click(function(event) {
  // DO STUFF HERE
}

Just give the checkbox in question a unique id=""
