  1. $(“input[type='checkbox']:checked”).each(function(){

    // your code

    });

  2. What if a radio button is selected?

  3. The website is horrible in IE6. At least the design for the page should be made differently to work in IE6

    • Why are you still using IE6?

    • Agree with mahen23.

      Also, I think css-tricks’ viewers are mostly web developers – In this case, (I hope) they don’t use IE6 as their default browser..

  4. Bit late reaction, but hey maybe someone will find it usefull. You can also use


    $('#checkBox').is(':checked')
