A checkbox named 'select-all' that checks and un-checks all others on the page
$('input[name"select-all"]').selectAll();The defaults can be very inefficient. It's better to specify the selector for the group of checkboxes and each row
$('input.select-all').selectAll({
group: 'form.some_form',
row: 'input.some_inputs'
});You can also specify a callback method for when checkboxes change their value
$('input.select-all').selectAll({
onchange: function(checked, unchecked){
/* do some stuff */
}
});For example, highlight the checked rows in a table (this 'info' class works with twitter bootstrap)
$('input.select-all').selectAll({
onchange: function(checked, unchecked){
$(checked).closest('tr').addClass('info');
$(unchecked).closest('tr').removeClass('info');
}
});As a bonus, throw this in to be able to toggle a checkbox when clicking on its table row
$(document).on('click', 'tr', function(e){
var checkbox = $(this).find('input[type="checkbox"]');
checkbox.prop('checked', !checkbox.prop('checked'));
checkbox.trigger('change');
});
