Get value of asp.net CheckBox via jquery(true/false)

asp.net, jquery

Solution

You forgot the `#` in your selector:

$('#<%= chkRequired.ClientID %>').is(':checked');

That should work

Problem

got the answer syntax error i want to get value of asp.net check box via jquery , if its selected return true otherwise false. i'm doing this: - ``` var ApprovalRequired = $('<%= chkRequired.ClientID %>').is(':checked'); // also var ApprovalRequired = $('<%= chkRequired.ClientID %>').val(); ``` and the checkbox return in html as ``` <input id="ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_chkRequired" type="checkbox" name="ctl00$ContentPlaceHolder1$chkRequired" checked="checked"> ``` in either way its returning 'false'. Any idea to get true when checked and false on unchecked
