trigger("click") checked items are not counted correctly

[Paulour]

Hi Eric

it has been mentioned once in the blog comments and marked as fixed, but it seems to me the problem is still there in the 1.5 release, for example by

var select = 'CH ';
$("#testlist").multiselect("widget").find("input:checkbox").each(function (chkindex) {
if (this.title.indexOf(select)>0) {
if(this.checked==false) {
this.trigger("click").attr('checked', true);
}
}
}

it will report one item less than actually 'x of n items selected'...and will correct itself by any manual select/deselect clicks.

please verify and wish you can correct this, and thanks for such a great extension to the UI collection! :)

Cheers, Paul

hey, this is a separate issue and there is some flaws in your logic... look here: http://jsfiddle.net/ehynds/VZ7AM/

Triggering click on a checkbox should update everything else, but there is a work around as provided by the demo.

hehe, thank you very much for your notes, still quite fresh with JS and the JQuery...and yes actually the multiselect("update") call will do the work already!

Cheers and have a great day, Paul
