The plugins site is currently in development.
We've been looking to provide a higher-quality, spam-free experience at the plugins site for some time, and a major error on our part forced us to shut down the current site before we could put the new one in place. We are developing a new site, and you can follow along with its development on GitHub. For more information about this transition, including steps you can take as a plugin author to prepare, please read our post about what's going on.
jQuery UI Checkbox
A checkbox and radio button replacement which uses no images other than jQuery UI Themeroller icons, and VML/SVG to get a rounded box on IE/Opera. The style changes with the theme switcher, although it requires a special event for IE/Opera to keep up (see the demo). However, some styles look nicer than others - the default style is too light. Tested in IE 6/7/8, FF 3.x, Safari 3.x/4.x, Opera 9 and Chrome.
All of the events go via the original widget, so you you don't need to change event handlers, form validation, submit, etc. However, for additional styling, the parent div must be targeted (again, see the demo). To use, include both the script and the style sheet. The methods .checkbox('check'), .checkbox('uncheck') and .checkbox('toggle') can be used to manipulate the state, or a targeted click event. Changing the state of the native widget without using these will confuse things.
Largely based on the plugin accessible radio button and checkbox replacement by alexander farkas.
