Check All checkboxes for only one group of checkboxes

[birwin]

I found a Javascript snippet that very effectively checks all boxes on a page, even on a page on which the input tags are in tables and on which I use a lot of other javascript. Unfortunately it is too effective and checks all boxes in all groups of checkboxes - even disabled checkboxes.

I need a work-around (or new code) that will limit it to only check one group of boxes, perhaps by using a unique id for the input tag. (I tried adding

 && x.form[i].id='formid' 

where formid was the id of the input tag but it didn't work.


My input tag's names are in an array ( cs[1], cs[2], cs[3]. . . . ). I use PHP.

Can anyone help me?

The code I tried is :

<script type="text/javascript">
function selectAll(x) {
for(var i=0,l=x.form.length; i<l; i++)
if(x.form[i].type == 'checkbox' && x.form[i].name != 'sAll')
x.form[i].checked=x.form[i].checked?false:true
}
</script>
 
<input type=\"checkbox\" name=\"SalleSalle\" on click=\"selectAll(this)\" /> (Select all)<br /> 

Thank you!

Welcome to TSDN.

Then add a condition to check whether the checkbox is disable or enable.
Best of luck.

Kind Regards.

You could use

obj.getElementsByTagName('input');

to get all input elements within a particular object (obviously checking the type too).

If it's checkboxes with the same name, just access the name of the checkbox and loop through those instead of the whole form.
