What you did looks fine if it only runs one on page load. Which means
if you check/uncheck after the fact, nothing else will happen.
If you want it to work dynamically, you have to attach an event to the
checkbox. Maybe something like:
$("input[name^=REQ_ACCT_LAB_]").click(function() {
if ($(this).is(":checked"))
{
$("input[name=MY_CHK]").attr("checked","checked");
}
else
{
$("input[name=MY_CHK]").attr("checked","");
}
});
