I thought this would be simple I have a table with the first column a checkbox I am using this code to make the checkbox check all the other checkboxs
$( .checkall ).click(function () {
$(this).parents( tbody:eq(0) ).find( :checkbox ).attr( checked , this.checked);
});
The HTML/Jquery code to create the table
$("#menuarea").html( <a href="#!/home" id="gotohome"><div id="backmain" class="backbg">Back</div></a><div id="nav" class="backbgright">New Business Lead</div> +
<div id="dowithleads"></div> +
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" class="sortable paginated" id="manageleads"> +
<thead> +
<tr> +
<th class="small"><input type="checkbox" class="checkbox checkall" value="Yes"></th> +
<th class="sort-alpha">Created Time</th> +
<th class="sort-alpha">Company</th> +
<th class="sort-alpha">Lead Name</th> +
<th class="sort-alpha">Phone No.</th> +
<th class="sort-alpha bigger">Email</th> +
