Checkbox not working properly for IE with jquery
- by wildanjel
Hi, I am trying using several asp.net checkboxes on a page, disabling them accordingly.
<asp:CheckBox ID='chkMenuItem' runat='server' CssClass='HiddenText' Text='Test' onclick='<%#String.Format("checkChild({0});", Eval("id")) %>' />
on javascript, I am using the following code
function checkChild(id) {
for (i = 0; i < $("input[id*=hdnParentMenuItemID]").length; i++) {
if ($('input[id*=hdnParentMenuItemID]')[i].value.split(':')[0] == id) {
var childID = $('input[id*=hdnParentMenuItemID]')[i].value.split(':')[1];
if ($("#" + childID).attr("disabled"))
//$("#" + childID).attr('disabled', '');
$("#" + childID).removeAttr("disabled");
else
$("#" + childID).attr('disabled', true);
}
}
}
Now is the checkboxes are disabled once the page is loaded, the removeAttr section doesn't work. I tried to step through the debugger and the logic works perfectly fine. If the checkboxes aren't disabled on page load, the code works fine. I tried replacing disabled 'attributes' with 'checked' to see if the other attributes work fine and it works perfectly fine. I tried
$("#" + childID).attr('disabled', '');
but it didnt work either.
Note: It works perfect on FF and Chrome but doesnt work in IE.
Thanks,
