Hi Matt,

I made some improvements to the code to do some of the things people were requesting in these posts. You can see the project at http://static.geewax.org/checktree/index.html

I am also new to jQuery so there’s plenty of comments in the code to see what’s been changed. I also gave a link back to this page as it was the inspiration for the project.

[...] checkbox tree is as good a plugin as any. I modeled it after a project by Matt Wood, (see http://floatmargin.com/2008/jquery-checkbox-tree-plugin/) and updated it to do a few more things, and the code is commented and much simpler to understand [...]

Awesome plugin. Looks good too
One suggestion on the checkchildren feature. Say you start with a two-level empty tree. /-/– Select a single node and it’s parent will be automatically selected. Thats cool. Now there are two items selected: the parent and its child node. If you de-select that same child node, it wont automatically de-select the parent, like i would expect it to. If you de-select a node and there aren’t any more selected nodes under its parent, then the parent node should also de-select.

Hope that makes sense…

I have uploaded a newer version to the same place that now allows you to add the setting checkchildren: true (default is false). If you set that option to true the children are automatically checked. But with this functionality the user will no longer be prevented from unchecking a parent checkbox, all the children will just be unchecked if the parent is unchecked.

Hello Matt,
Great plugin! Thanks
I was wondering if you could share the code to do what Marcus said:
“If you check the parent in a common tree control, all the children are automatically checked”
Thanks again!
