Question

If the checkbox with the class “selectAll” is checked I want the rest of the checkboxes on the page to automatically be checked. I got this working with the following:

$('.selectAll').click(function() {
    $("input[type='checkbox']").attr('checked', true);
});

But I want all checkboxes to be unchecked when select all is clicked again, I can’t get that part working. How can that be done?

Answer 1

You could change true to other parameters…

$('.selectAll').click(function() {
    $("input[type='checkbox']").attr('checked', this.checked);
});
