Answer 1

Disable?

$("a.clickme").click(function(){
  $(this)                    // Link has been clicked
    .closest("td")           // Get Parent TD
    .find("input:checkbox")  // Find all checkboxes
    .attr("disabled", true); // Disable them
});

or Checked?

$("a.clickme").click(function(){
  $(this)                    // Link has been clicked
    .closest("td")           // Get Parent TD
    .find("input:checkbox")  // Find all checkboxes
    .attr("checked", false); // Uncheck them
});

Answer 2

Your code can be a lot simpler:

$el = $(this).parents('table:eq(0)')[0].children('input[type="checkbox"]');

Could be:

$el = $(this).parents('table:first :checkbox');

Then to disable them:

$el.attr('disabled', 'disabled');

or to check them:

$el.attr('checked', 'checked');

or to uncheck them:

$el.removeAttr('checked');

or to enable them:

$el.removeAttr('disabled');

Answer 3

// Enable/Disable All Checkboxes

$('#checkbox').click(function() {

    var checked = $(this).attr('checked');
    var checkboxes = '.checkboxes input[type=checkbox]';

    if (checked) {
        $(this).attr('checked','checked');
        $(checkboxes).attr('disabled','true');
    } else {
        $(this).removeAttr('checked');
        $(checkboxes).removeAttr('disabled');
    }
});
