Checkbox validation

[neogazz]

Dear Bytes Team

How would you use JavaScript function validation to check wether or not a checkbox is checked or not?

I am able to check input fields, however I am not sure about checkboxes.

It it simple, Just have a id attribute in the checkbox. And then use the DOM object for checking.

ex:
HTML

<input type="checkbox" id="testObj" checked="checked"/>

JS

if(document.getElementById('testObj').checked==true)
  alert("Check box checked");
else
  alert("Check box Not checked");

Thanks and Regards
