jQuery Uniform Checkbox does not (un)check

Question

I am using jQuery Uniform to style inputs/selects etcs. However, the checkbox has stopped working. I am appending data sent from an ajax call. Once it\'s loaded

Answer 1

jQuery 1.6.4 changed the meaning of the attr() function, which is used by jquery.uniform.js. attr() now returns the state that the attribute WAS in when the page loaded - not what the state of the attribute is NOW. There is a replacement function called prop(), which does the job that attr() used to do.

To fix the plugin, replace each occurrence of attr("checked") with prop("checked"). Also, change attr("disabled") to prop("disabled").

That should fix your project up. It worked for me ;-)
