Check only checkboxes with a specific value

Question

I am trying to check only checkboxes that have a specific value. I know how to get the value and I know how to check all checkboxes but I cannot figure out how to check only the ones with, lets say value of '200' My example code: ``` 200 0 0 200 300 check 200 ``` So now I need jQuery code to complete my code. I appreciate any help. BTW. Is there a way to check '200' and '300' in one go? UPDATED!

Accepted Answer

Your checkboxes do not have `value` attributes, if you want to check the checkboxes according to the text content of the TD elements, you can use `filter` method.

```
$('td.code').filter(function(){
   var txt = this.textContent || this.innerText;
   return txt === '200' || txt === '300';  
}).prev().find('input').prop('checked', true);
```

Update:

```
$('tr input[type=checkbox][value=200]').prop('checked', true);
```

Alternative:

```
$('tr input[type=checkbox]').filter(function(){
   return this.value === '200' || this.value === '300';
}).prop('checked', true);
```
