The problem is that you're appending the label to the checkbox
element, not the table cell, so when you are clicking on the checkbox,
you are clicking on both the checkbox AND the label, so it keeps its
current state.
Change the line:
vmc_box.appendChild(vmc_label);
to:
vmc_element.appendChild(vmc_label);
and it will work. You may want to swap the order of appending the
label and the box, for consistency with the option above.
