checkbox enabling issue under IE

[[email protected]…]

Hello,

I have a page in which there are several checkboxes. They can be disabled or enabled all at a time by clicking on another checkbox.

It works fine with the jquery 1.4.2. With jquery 1.6.2, it fails when I use

$("#mychkbox").change(function(){
    $("#checkboxes").removeAttr('disabled');
});

I noticed this weird behaviour under IE8. It works fine under Chrome and FF 3.6

Maybe I do something wrong?

Hope this helps.

Don't remove the disabled attribute. Instead set the disabled property to false: $("checkbox").prop("disabled", false)
