Check if a checkbox is check in jQuery

Question

So I would like to know after form submitting if a checkbox is checked or not.

I used this lines:

var isChecked = $('#USR_RememberMe').attr('checked') ? true : false;
alert(isChecked);

But isChecked is equals to false each times.

Could you please help me ?

Try .prop() instead of .attr(). Also, note the "Attributes vs. Properties" section in the documentation for .prop(). — Jonathan Lonowski

Do this:

$("#USR_RememberMe").is(":checked");

:checked is a pseudo class.
