jQuery: Test if checkbox is NOT checked

Question

I\'m having trouble figuring this out. I have two checkboxes (in the future will have more):

• checkSurfaceEnvironment-1
• checkSurface

Answer 1

I was looking for a more direct implementation like avijendr suggested.

I had a little trouble with his/her syntax, but I got this to work:

if ($('.user-forms input[id*="chkPrint"]:not(:checked)').length > 0)

In my case, I had a table with a class user-forms, and I was checking if any of the checkboxes that had the string checkPrint in their id were unchecked.
