Check if checkbox is checked

Okey:

1. you are missing the event: $('.submit').submit(function () { should be $('.submit').submit(function (e) {
2. The button is missing a type="submit" and it should be inside the form element.
3. The Form element is missing the class submit

this should work: http://jsfiddle.net/voigtan/ZZe5X/26/

You don't have a submit button in a form with the class submit, so your submit event handler never executes. Add class="submit" to your form tag and change <button>Click me</button> to <input type="submit" value="Click me" /> and move it to before your </form> tag.

Please try this.

 $('.submit').submit(function () { if ($('input[type="checkbox"]').is(':checked')) { alert('ok'); } else { alert('no'); } return false; }) 

1. You didn't have a submit class
2. You had .submit() set on a button, it needs to be .click
3. You weren't iterating through each checked box, which is what I assume you wanted to be doing.
