Mvc Contrib grid with checkbox

Answer 1

The following has worked for me :

column.For(x => Html.CheckBox('chkBox', x.Published)).Named('Published');

Answer 2

column.For(x => Html.CheckBox("mycheckbox", new { @class = "foo" }))
    .DoNotEncode()
    .Header("<th><input type=\"checkbox\" id="chkHeader" /></th>");

And then you could use jquery to handle the change event of the header checkbox and check/uncheck all the others:

$(function() {
    $('#chkHeader').change(function() {
        if ($(this).is(':checked')) {
            $('.foo').attr('checked', 'checked');
        } else {
            $('.foo').removeAttr('checked');
        }
    });
});
