Selecting all of the checkboxes jQuery

davidp994 · 11-08-2012, 01:41 AM

I have code which displayed a person's info in a table(fields:name, surname, address, etc.) and one of the inputs is a checkbox. The code is as follows:

Code:

$("#table").append('<tr class="trow'+j+'">'+
'<td class="ids" id="z'+i+'">'+totrecs+'</td>'+
'<td>'+member[i].jdate+'</td>'+
'<td class="users"
'<td id="contact'+i+'">'+member[i].fname+'

'+member[i].lname+'</td>'+

'<td id="myaddress'+i+'">'+member[i].address1+'

'+member[i].town+'</td>'+

'<td><input type="checkbox" name="whome" id="showMe'+i+'"'+
'class="boxes" onclick="getMe('+i+')" /></td></tr>');
totrecs++;
j++;
}

and the button -

Code:

<input type="button" id="selectall" title="Select All" value="Select All" />

What I am tryin to do is program a function that when clicking a certain button all of the checkboxes will be selected/checked.

I would appreciate any help. Thank You.

Code:

$('#selectall').click(function() {
   $('input:checkbox').prop('checked', true);
});
