This solution is better because it is shorter and doesn't use a loop.

id="checkAll" is the header column

$('#checkAll').on('click', function() {
        if (this.checked == true)
            $('#userTable').find('input[name="checkboxRow"]').prop('checked', true);
        else
            $('#userTable').find('input[name="checkboxRow"]').prop('checked', false);
    });

Actually your checkAll     is hanging without any attachment   1  Add onchange event handler   lt th gt  lt INPUT type  checkbox  onchange  checkAll this   name  chk      gt   lt  th gt    2   Modified the code to handle check uncheck   function checkAll ele         var checkboxes   document getElementsByTagName  input         if  ele checked             for  var i   0  i  lt  checkboxes length  i                   if  checkboxes i  type     checkbox                      checkboxes i  checked   true                                   else            for  var i   0  i  lt  checkboxes length  i                   console log i               if  checkboxes i  type     checkbox                      checkboxes i  checked   false                                        Updated Fiddle

This will select and deselect all checkboxes   function checkAll          var checkboxes   document getElementsByTagName  input    val   null           for  var i   0  i  lt  checkboxes length  i                    if  checkboxes i  type     checkbox                           if  val     null  val   checkboxes i  checked               checkboxes i  checked   val                         Demo  Update   You can use querySelectAll directly on the table to get the list of checkboxes instead of searching the whole document  but It might not be compatible with old browsers so you need to check that first    function checkAll           var table   document getElementById   dataTable         var checkboxes   table querySelectorAll   input type checkbox          var val   checkboxes 0  checked       for  var i   0  i  lt  checkboxes length  i    checkboxes i  checked   val       Or to be more specific for the provided html structure in the OP question  this would be more efficient when selecting the checkboxes as it will access them directly instead of searching for them   function checkAll  tableID        var table   document getElementById  tableID       var val   table rows 0  cells 0  children 0  checked      for  var i   1  i  lt  table rows length  i                  table rows i  cells 0  children 0  checked   val            Demo
