How to uncheck a checkbox using jQuery without triggering click event

Question

Normally people complain about checkbox clicking not triggering any event but in my case it's opposite, I want to uncheck checkbox without triggering any click event on it.

This is my precious checkbox,

<asp:CheckBox ID="someID" runat="server" Text="myCheckBoxText" OnClick="DoSomething();" />

Answer 1

You can use .prop():

//Un-check
$("#someID").prop("checked",false);

//check
$("#someID").prop("checked",true);

Answer 2

Please try with the below code snippet.

//check
$("#someID").prop("checked",true);

//Un-check
$("#someID").prop("checked",false);
