I have this code to style a checkbox using the iCheck plugin for jquery, is there a way to change the 'insert' attribute later?. I tried recreating the iCheck but the callback function is deleted if I do it that way.
$(this).iCheck({
checkboxClass: checkboxClass,
insert: '<div class="icheck_line-icon"></div>' + $(this).attr("data-label")
});
$(this).on({ifChecked: function(){
iCheckChange(this, yes);
},ifUnchecked: function(){
iCheckChange(this, no);
}
});
Lets say you have checkboxes in this format:
<input type="checkbox" class="my_checkbox" data-label="Check me" />
Than you can change your icon and text this way:
var checkboxClass = 'checkbox_cls';
$('.my_checkbox').each(function(i) {
var thisCheckbox=$(this);
thisCheckbox.iCheck({
checkboxClass: checkboxClass,
insert: '<div class="icheck_line-icon"></div><span class="insert_label">' + thisCheckbox.data("label") + '</span>'
});
var thisIcon = thisCheckbox.siblings('.icheck_line-icon');
var thisLabel = thisCheckbox.siblings('.insert_label');
thisCheckbox.on('ifChecked', function(e){
thisIcon.addClass('icon-checked');
thisLabel.html('Im checked');
});
thisCheckbox.on('ifUnchecked', function(e){
thisIcon.removeClass('icon-checked');
thisLabel.html('Not checked');
});
});
Take a look at this Fiddle.
