Example:

function example(errorClass, validClass){
/*you have to ask if length is equal then */
    if($("input[name*='chkList']").length ==
$("input[name*='chkList']:not(:checked)").length){
        /*show the error class highlight or alerts or your class assigned to
all checkbox */
        /* you can add class without send to the function)
        $("input[name*='chkList']").addClass(errorClass)
>
>         alert("please select at least one option")
   }
   else
   {
      $("input[name*='chkList']").removeClass(errorClass)
   }
}

but , i dont know because use "removeClass" or addClass" without respective
parameters, this not add or remove or fire nothing .
