Pulling my hair out trying to use Custom JS to check a checkbox...

Jquery docs examples dont work...
These also, no go.
$('[dsid="checkbox1"]').prop("checked", true).checkboxradio("refresh");
$('[dsid="checkbox1"]').attr("checked",true);

This works but have many boxes to deal with...
$("input[type='checkbox1']:first").attr("checked",true).checkboxradio("refresh");

How do I select it and check or uncheck it?
And test if checked...

Please help...

Hello Neil! Could you share your App or tell us it's name if App shared already?

Hello! Please try this:

Tiggzi("mobilecheckbox1").find("input[type='checkbox']").attr("checked",true).checkboxradio("refresh");

Tiggzi("mobilecheckbox1").find("input[type='checkbox']").attr("checked",false).checkboxradio("refresh");

I tested this on Button click - it works

Freaking awesome Marina !!!
Thank You !

Tiggzi("mycheckbox").find("input[type='checkbox']").attr("checked",true).checkboxradio("refresh");
Works Perfect !
And Use code below to test if checked...
code
var test1 = Tiggzi("checkbox1").find("input[type='checkbox']").attr("checked");
if (test1 == "checked"){
alert ("true");
}else{
alert ("false");
}
/code

I just noticed...
If I use the code u gave to check the box . My code to test box does not work.
If I manualy check the box it does...

So how do I test if checked when I us JS to check it. When the the user clicks the check box to uncheck.??

Check what you get in 'test1'.

When using the JS function I get "checked" for box checked "undefined" for not checked.
If using JS to check box. Then Manually uncheck box... test1 still shows "checked".

I'd recommend to check jQuery docs, or examples how to do that.

For folks later
My work around...
placed Tizzgi Panel.
put in.. code<label><input type="checkbox" name="testbox1" id="testbox1" &#47;>test box <&#47;label> /code

To check the box using custom JS.
$('input[name=testbox1]').attr('checked', true).checkboxradio("refresh");
Uncheck it..
$('input[name=testbox1]').attr('checked', false).checkboxradio("refresh");

to test if checked...
code
var test1 = $('input[name=testbox1]')&#46;is(':checked')
if (test1 == true){
alert ("true" + test1);&#47;&#47; returns true
}else{
alert ("false" + test1);&#47;&#47;returns false
}
/code
Now even when u use custom JS to make checkbox checked. And the user unchecks the box after. The test if checked returns false like it should.

I have tried this above and my checkbox doesn't change. Originally the checkbox is set to Selected but if someone wants to opt out they can unclick it. However I need to reset it to Selected for the next person and it is currently not doing that.
Here is what I have:

I am trying to change this checkbox from 'not checked' to 'checked' when I click on the Clear button.

So I've added the following code to the Clear button's Click event. I've three different solutions I have found in the Appery.io forum but none of them work.

Last here is an image showing the name of the check box:

Thank you
