Re: How to uncheck one checkbox if some other is checked

This is really a question for JavascriptMonks, but I'll chime in to say jQuery makes fiddling with things like checkboxes a lot easier, and you don't have to plug those ugly onClick things into your HTML:

<head>
    <script type="text/javascript"
        src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.2/jquery
+.min.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        $(document).ready(function(){
            $('input.g[name!="loner"]').click(function(e){
                $('input.g[name="loner"]').prop('checked',false);
            });
            $('input.g[name="loner"]').click(function(e){
                $('input.g[name!="loner"]').prop('checked',false);
            });
        });
    </script>
</head>
<body>
    <form>
        <input type=checkbox name=loner class=g />Loner
        <input type=checkbox name=a class=g />A
        <input type=checkbox name=b class=g />B
        <input type=checkbox name=c class=g />C
        <input type=checkbox name=d class=g />D
    </form>
</body>
