You have to use  for checkboxes   checkbox and the  name attribute to select by class   For example      input aclass checkbox     The  checkbox selector      Matches all input elements of type checkbox  Using this   psuedo-selector like     checkbox   is equivalent to      checkbox     which is a slow selector     It s recommended to do    input checkbox      You should read jQuery documentation to know about selectors

Your selector is looking for any descendants of a checkbox element that have a class of  myClass   Try this instead      input myClass checkbox     Check it out in action   I also tested this      input checkbox myClass     And it will also work properly  In my humble opinion this syntax really looks rather ugly  as most of the time I expect   style selectors to come last  As I said  though  either one will work

Just in case any dummies like me tried the suggestions here with a button and found nothing worked  you probably want this       button myclass

If you want to get the inputs of that type with that class use      input myClass type checkbox      the    selector syntax allows you to check against any of the elements attributes  Check out the spec for more details
