jQuery | :checkbox Selector

The checkbox is a very important element to make interactions with a user. In JQuery, we can build a simple checkbox to allow data entry as well.

Syntax:

$(":checkbox")

We can implement the checkbox in the code:
Example:

<!DOCTYPE html> 
<html> 
  
<head> 
    <script src= 
"https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"> 
  </script> 
      
  <style> 
        p { 
            font-size: 20px 
        } 
    </style> 
    <script> 
        $(document).ready(function() { 
            $(":checkbox").wrap( 
            "<span style='background-color:green'>"); 
        }); 
    </script> 
</head> 
  
<body> 
  
    <h2>Add your Hobbies:</h2> 
    <p>Dancing: 
        <input type="checkbox"
               name="hobbies" 
               value="dancing"> 
        <br> Painting: 
        
        <input type="checkbox"
               name="hobbies"
               value="painting"> 
        <br> Singing: 
        
        <input type="checkbox"
               name="hobbies" 
               value="singing"> 
        <br> 
    </p> 
  
</body> 
  
</html>
