[jQuery] Re: checkbox manipulation and toggle()
Although you need to make sure that you set the for attribute o the
label tag to the id attribute of the input tag, NOT the name
attribute.
One way to get around this issue (and the recommended method) is to
set the name and id attribute of the input tag the same.
If you wrap the input tag with the label tag, there is no need to
include the for attribute, bu if the label is not wrapping the input
tag, it needs to be included.
e.g.-
Please check this box
This is my checkbox

[jQuery] Re: checkbox manipulation and toggle()
you need a label and set its for attribute to the checkbox

Actually, this is a standard implementation in html: use the tag.

from The Man Himself, but didn't work.
$("#CheckContainer:not(#Check)").toggle(...); --- does not work. stil
