Probably you can go with this code to take actions as the checkbox is checked or unchecked       chk   on  click  function        if this checked  true         alert  yes         else        alert  no

it s better if you define a class with a different colour  then you switch the class      checkbox   click function        var chk     this          p   toggleClass  selected   chk attr  checked           in this way your code it s cleaner because you don t have to specify all css properties  let s say you want to add a border  a text style or other     but you just switch a class

I would use  change   and this checked       checkbox   change function        var c   this checked     f00      09f          p   css  color   c         --  On using this checked Andy E has done a great write-up on how we tend to overuse jQuery  Utilizing the awesome power of jQuery to access properties of an element  The article specifically treats the use of  attr  id   but in the case that  checkbox is an  lt input type  checkbox    gt  element the issue is the same for        attr  checked    or even        is   checked    vs  this checked

It may happen that  this checked  is always  on   Therefore  I recommend       checkbox   change function       if    this  is   checked          console log  Checked        else       console log  Unchecked

I found out a crazy solution for dealing with this issue of checkbox not checked or checked here is my algorithm    create a global variable lets say var check holder   check holder has 3 states    undefined state 0 state 1 state   If the checkbox is clicked     document  on  click    check  function        if typeof check holder    undefined                this means that it is the first time and the check is going to be checked             do something           check holder 1    indicates that the is checked it is in checked state           else if check holder  1               do something when the check is going to be unchecked           check holder 0    it means that it is not checked it is in unchecked state            else if check holder  0                 do something when the check is going to be checked             check holder 1   indicates that it is in a checked state              The code above can be used in many situation to find out if a checkbox has been checked or not checked  The concept behind it is to save the checkbox states in a variable  ie when it is on off   i Hope the logic can be used to solve your problem
