Thanks worked as in

$('#custom7').on('change', function(){
   this.value = this.checked ? 1 : 0;
   // alert(this.value);
}).change();

Problem

In many cases, I have checkboxes as below ``` <input type="checkbox" name="custom7" value="1" id="custom7" checked="checked"> <label for="custom7">Email me more info?</label> ``` Now when the checkbox is checked the value should be 1 as in value=1 . If the checkbox is unchecked, I want the value to be zero as in value=0. How can I do this?
