Description
Starting from the version 1.4 jQuery always seems to return the value of checkboxes "on", with the val() method. It does not matter, if the checkbox is checked or not.
Noticed it on Chromium daily build on linux, but it seems to act like this, also with the Firefox 3.5.5.
jQuery 1.3.2 seems to work fine.
See the attachment.

I don't see what is invalid about the original complaint. The point of val() (to me) is that I can get an input value without checking the control type. Now I have to.
Didn't you forget a
attribute? If you just wanted to know if the box was checked, you should use or look at the property.
