Hello readers, in this basic example, developers will learn what jQuery<\/strong> is. They will also learn how to check whether a checkbox is checked or not with jQuery.<\/p>\n

1. Introduction<\/h2>\n

jQuery<\/strong> is nothing but a JavaScript library that comes with rich functionalities. It’s smaller and faster than many JavaScript code written by an average web developer. By using jQuery developers can write less code and do more things, doing web developer’s tasks very easy. In simple word, jQuery is a collection of several useful methods, which can be used to carry out many common tasks in JavaScript. Couple lines of jQuery code can do things which need too many JavaScript lines to do. The true power of jQuery comes from its CSS-like selector, which allows it to select any element from DOM and change, update or manipulate it. Developers can use jQuery to do cool animations like fade in or fade out. They can also change the CSS class of a component dynamically e.g. making a component active or inactive. I have used this technique to make a tabbed UI<\/em> in HTML<\/code>. I can vouch for jQuery that once developers start using it, they will never go back to plain old JavaScript as jQuery<\/em> is clear<\/em>, concise<\/em>, and powerful<\/em>.

1.1 How to use jQuery Library?<\/h3>\n

jQuery<\/em> is just a small 20+ kb<\/em> JavaScript file. If developers want to use jQuery, they just need to download the latest jQuery file from the official website<\/a> or any of the CDN (i.e. Content Delivery Network) URL which provides the jQuery download ability.<\/p>\n

1.2 How to track a checkbox status using jQuery?<\/h3>\n

jQuery\u2019s prop()<\/code> method and :checked<\/code> selector are the two ways to track whether a checkbox is checked or not.<\/p>\n

1.2.1 jQuery prop() Method<\/h4>\n

The jQuery\u2019s prop()<\/code> method is used to retrieve the values of the DOM properties (such as defaultChecked, nodeName, tagName etc.) or the custom-made properties. This method provides an authentic process to check the ‘checkboxes<\/span>‘ status. Do not misinterpret this with the checked<\/code> attribute. The checked<\/code> attribute only<\/em> describes the initial<\/em> state and not the current<\/em> state of a checkbox.<\/p>\n

Snippet<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

$(document).ready(function() {\r\n\t$('input[type=\"checkbox\"]').click(function() {\r\n\t\tif($(this).prop(\"checked\") == true) {\r\n\t\t\tconsole.log(\"Checkbox is checked.\");\r\n\t\t}\r\n\t\telse if($(this).prop(\"checked\") == false) {\r\n\t\t\tconsole.log(\"Checkbox is unchecked.\");\r\n\t\t}\r\n\t});\r\n});\r\n<\/pre>\n
1.2.2 jQuery Checked Selector<\/h4>\n
To track the status of a checkbox, developers can use the jQuery\u2019s :checked<\/code> selector. This selector is specifically outlined for the radio-buttons and the checkboxes.<\/p>\n
Snippet<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
$(document).ready(function() {\r\n\t$('input[type=\"checkbox\"]').click(function() {\r\n\t\tif($(this).is(\":checked\")) {\r\n\t\t\tconsole.log(\"Checkbox is checked.\");\r\n\t\t}\r\n\t\telse if($(this).is(\":not(:checked)\")){\r\n\t\t\tconsole.log(\"Checkbox is unchecked.\");\r\n\t\t}\r\n\t});\r\n});\r\n<\/pre>\n
These new APIs make developer’s life easier, really! But it would be difficult for a beginner to understand this without an example. This tutorial is outlined to track the status of a checkbox by using the jQuery :checked<\/code> selector.<\/p>\n
2. jQuery Checkbox Example<\/h2>\n
Here is a step-by-step guide for implementing the jQuery checkbox example.<\/p>\n
2.1 Tools Used<\/h3>\n
We are using Eclipse Kepler SR2, JDK 8 and Maven. Having said that, we have tested the code against JDK 1.7 and it works well.<\/p>\n
2.2 Project Structure<\/h3>\n
Firstly, let\u2019s review the final project structure, in case you are confused about where you should create the corresponding files or folder later!<\/p>\n
\"Fig.<\/a>
Fig. 1: Application Project Structure<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
2.3 Project Creation<\/h3>\n
This section will demonstrate on how to create a Java-based Maven project with Eclipse. In Eclipse Ide, go to File -> New -> Maven Project<\/code>.<\/p>\n
\"Fig.<\/a>
Fig. 2: Create Maven Project<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
In the New Maven Project window, it will ask you to select project location. By default, ‘Use default workspace location’ will be selected. Just click on next button to proceed.<\/p>\n
\"Fig.<\/a>
Fig. 3: Project Details<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
Select the ‘Maven Web App’ Archetype from the list of options and click next.<\/p>\n
\"Fig.<\/a>
Fig. 4: Archetype Selection<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
It will ask you to ‘Enter the group and the artifact id for the project’. We will input the details as shown in the below image. The version number will be by default: 0.0.1-SNAPSHOT<\/code>.<\/p>\n
\"Fig.<\/a>
Fig. 5: Archetype Parameters<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
Click on Finish and the creation of a maven project is completed. If you observe, it has downloaded the maven dependencies and a pom.xml<\/code> file will be created. It will have the following code:<\/p>\n
pom.xml<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
<project xmlns=\"http:\/\/maven.apache.org\/POM\/4.0.0\" xmlns:xsi=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2001\/XMLSchema-instance\" xsi:schemaLocation=\"http:\/\/maven.apache.org\/POM\/4.0.0 http:\/\/maven.apache.org\/xsd\/maven-4.0.0.xsd\">\r\n\t<modelVersion>4.0.0<\/modelVersion>\r\n\t<groupId>jQueryCheckboxEx<\/groupId>\r\n\t<artifactId>jQueryCheckboxEx <\/artifactId>\r\n\t<version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT<\/version>\r\n\t<packaging>war<\/packaging>\r\n<\/project>\r\n<\/pre>\n
Let\u2019s start building the application!<\/p>\n
3. Application Building<\/h2>\n
Let\u2019s create a basic application to illustrate this in the jQuery framework.<\/p>\n
3.1 Load the jQuery Library<\/h3>\n
Since it is a pure JavaScript framework, developers should add its reference using the <script><\/code> tag.<\/p>\n
<script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"resource\/js\/jquery-3.2.1.min.js\"><\/script>\r\n<\/pre>\n
Developers can either download the jQuery from the official website and the application will then directly load the jQuery library from the local drive or they can also include the direct CDN link under the script<\/em> tag.<\/p>\n
3.2 Define the Application<\/h3>\n
Next, we will define the sample application using the HTML<\/code> tags.<\/p>\n
<div id=\"checkboxDemo\" align=\"center\" class=\"fontsize17\">\r\n      <div id=\"checkBox\">\r\n      \t <label for=\"myCheck\">Checkbox: <\/label><input type=\"checkbox\" id=\"myCheck\">\r\n      <\/div>                              \r\n      <p id=\"myText\" style=\"display: none\">Checkbox is 'CHECKED'!<\/p>     \r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/pre>\n
3.3 Define a jQuery Function<\/h3>\n
In this step, we\u2019ll define a jQuery function to track the checkbox status (i.e. checked or unchecked).<\/p>\n
checkbox.js<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
$(document).ready(function() { \r\n\t$(\"#myCheck\").click(function() { \r\n\t\tvar checkBox = $(\"#myCheck\").is(\":checked\");\r\n\t\tif(checkBox) {\r\n\t\t\t$(\"#myText\").css({'display' : 'block', 'color' : 'green', 'padding-top' : '10px'});\r\n\t\t} else {\r\n\t\t\t$(\"#myText\").css({'display' : 'none'});\r\n\t\t}\r\n\t});\r\n});\r\n<\/pre>\n
3.4 First jQuery Application<\/h3>\n
Complete the above steps and save the file. Let\u2019s see the sample code snippet.<\/p>\n
index.jsp<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
<!DOCTYPE html>\r\n<html>\r\n   <head>\r\n      <meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text\/html; charset=UTF-8\">\r\n      <title>jQuery Checkbox Program<\/title>\r\n      \r\n      <!-- jQuery Files -->\r\n      <script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"resource\/js\/jquery-3.2.1.min.js\"><\/script>\r\n      <script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"resource\/js\/checkbox.js\"><\/script>    \r\n      \r\n      <!-- Css Files -->\r\n      <link rel=\"stylesheet\" href=\"resource\/css\/bootstrap.min.css\">\r\n      <link rel=\"stylesheet\" href=\"resource\/css\/checkbox.css\">                \r\n   <\/head>\r\n   <body>\r\n      <h1 align=\"center\" class=\"text-primary paddingTop5\">jQuery Checkbox Example<\/h1>\r\n      <div id=\"headerText\" class=\"text-info fontsize17 padding10\" align=\"center\">Display Some Text When The Checkbox Is Checked<\/div>\r\n      <div id=\"checkboxDemo\" align=\"center\" class=\"fontsize17\">\r\n      \t <div id=\"checkBox\">\r\n      \t \t<label for=\"myCheck\">Checkbox: <\/label><input type=\"checkbox\" id=\"myCheck\">\r\n      \t <\/div>                              \r\n         <p id=\"myText\" style=\"display: none\">Checkbox is 'CHECKED'!<\/p>     \r\n      <\/div>\r\n   <\/body>\r\n<\/html>\r\n<\/pre>\n
4. Run the Application<\/h2>\n
As we are ready with all the changes, let us compile the project and deploy the application on the Tomcat7 server. To deploy the application on Tomat7, right-click on the project and navigate to Run as -> Run on Server<\/code>.<\/p>\n
\"Fig.<\/a>
Fig. 6: How to Deploy Application on Tomcat<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
Tomcat will deploy the application in its web-apps folder and shall start its execution to deploy the project so that we can go ahead and test it in the browser.<\/p>\n
5. Project Demo<\/h2>\n
Open your favorite browser and hit the following URL to display the initial page.<\/p>\n
http:\/\/localhost:8082\/jQueryCheckboxEx\/\r\n<\/pre>\n
Server name (localhost) and port (8082) may vary as per your Tomcat configuration. Developers can debug the example and see what happens after every step. Enjoy!<\/p>\n
\"Fig.<\/a>
Fig. 7: Initial Page<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
On clicking the Checkbox<\/em>, we will see the alert message as below.<\/p>\n
\"Fig.8:<\/a>

That\u2019s all for this post. Happy Learning!!<\/p>\n
