jQuery - How to select all checkboxes EXCEPT a specific one?

Question

I have a jQuery selector that looks like this ...

$(\"input:checkbox\").click(function(event) {
  // DO STUFF HERE
}

Everything was working

Answer 1

If all the checkboxes are within another element, you can select all checkboxes within that element.

Here is an example with one parent element.

The jQuery below also works with multiple divs as well:

jQuery:

$('.test input:checkbox')

That selects just the checkboxes within any element with class "test".
