Jquery toggle event is messing with checkbox value

Question

I\'m using Jquery\'s toggle event to do some stuff when a user clicks a checkbox, like this:

$(\'input#myId\').toggle(
function(){
//do stuff  
},
function()         


        

Answer 1

Use the change event instead of the toggle event, like such:

$('input#myId').change(function () {
    if ($(this).attr("checked")) {
        //do the stuff that you would do when 'checked'

        return;
    }
    //Here do the stuff you want to do when 'unchecked'
});
