jQWidgets jqxCheckBox groupName Property

Last Updated : 26 Nov, 2022

jQWidgets is a JavaScript framework for making web-based applications for PC and mobile devices. It is a very powerful and optimized framework, platform-independent, and widely supported. The jqxCheckBox widget is used to display a check box that allow users to select or deselect checkbox.

The groupName property is used to set or return the name of the group. If we set this property then the checkboxes in the same group behave like radio buttons. It accepts string type value and its default value is empty “”.

Syntax:

Set the groupName property.

$('selector').jqxCheckBox({ groupName: "Panel" });

Return the groupName property.

var groupName = $('selector').jqxCheckBox('groupName');
