How to check radio button is checked using JQuery?

Question

I have two radio buttons in one group, I want to check the radio button is checked or not using JQuery, How ?

Answer 1

Given a group of radio buttons:

You can test whether a specific one is checked using jQuery as follows:

if ($("#radio1").prop("checked")) {
   // do something
}

// OR
if ($("#radio1").is(":checked")) {
   // do something
}

// OR if you don't have ids set you can go by group name and value
// (basically you need a selector that lets you specify the particular input)
if ($("input[name='radioGroup'][value='1']").prop("checked"))

You can get the value of the currently checked one in the group as follows:

$("input[name='radioGroup']:checked").val()
