I have a problem regarding checking checkbox by JS.When I checked the checkbox by JS it seems like in program that it's checked but in UI it's not updated .
if anyone have solution for this
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Check</title>
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.1.0/jquery.mobile-1.1.0.min.css" />
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.7.1.min.js"></script>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.1.0/jquery.mobile-1.1.0.min.js"></script>
<script>
function getCheckedValue()
{
return ((document.getElementById("rock").checked));
}
function setCheckedValue(toBeChecked){
document.getElementById(toBeChecked).checked="checked";
alert((document.getElementById(toBeChecked).checked))
alert($('#'+toBeChecked).attr('checked'))
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div data-role="page">
<div data-role="header">
<h1>What kind/s of music do you listen to?</h1>
</div><!-- /header -->
<div data-role="content">
<input type="checkbox" class="music" name="music" id="rock" value="rock" >
<label for="rock">Rock</label>
<input type="button" value="Get" onclick="alert(getCheckedValue())">
<input type="button" value="Set" onclick="setCheckedValue('rock') ">
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Instead of using attr I would highly recommend you use prop.
The preferred cross-browser-compatible way to determine if a checkbox is checked is to check for a "truthy" value on the element's property using one of the following:
if ( elem.checked )
if ( $(elem).prop("checked") )
if ( $(elem).is(":checked") )
The .prop() method should be used to set disabled and checked instead of the .attr() method. The .val() method should be used for getting and setting value.
$("input").prop("disabled", false);
$("input").prop("checked", true);
$("input").val("someValue");
I have worked after getting response from all of your efforts and the working code is below.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>

<title>Check</title>

<script src="http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.1.0/jquery.mobile-1.1.0.min.js"></script>
<script>
function getCheckedValue()
{
return (document.getElementById("rock").checked);
//return $('input[name=music]').checked;
}
function setCheckedValue(checkboxName,toBeChecked){
$('input[name='+checkboxName+']').prop("checked", true).checkboxradio("refresh");
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div data-role="page">
<div data-role="header">
<h1>What kind/s of music do you listen to?</h1>
</div><!-- /header -->
<div data-role="content">
<input type="checkbox" class="music" name="music" id="rock" value="rock" >
<label for="rock">Rock</label>
<input type="button" value="Get" onclick="alert(getCheckedValue())">
<input type="button" value="Set" onclick="setCheckedValue('music','rock') ">
</div>
</div>
