checkbox selector
Description: Selects all elements of type checkbox.
-
version added: 1.0jQuery( ":checkbox" )
$(':checkbox')
is equivalent to $('[type=checkbox]')
. As with other pseudo-class selectors (those that begin with a ":") it is recommended to precede it with a tag name or some other selector; otherwise, the universal selector ("*") is implied. In other words, the bare $(':checkbox')
is equivalent to $('*:checkbox')
, so $('input:checkbox')
should be used instead.
Additional Notes:
- Because
:checkbox
is a jQuery extension and not part of the CSS specification, queries using:checkbox
cannot take advantage of the performance boost provided by the native DOMquerySelectorAll()
method. For better performance in modern browsers, use[type="checkbox"]
instead.
Example:
Finds all checkbox inputs.
