Select all checkbox elements except disabled ones

Question

I want to select all checkbox elements expect disabled ones,

this is my html

Answer 1

It can be as short as

$('#chkSelectAll').click(function() {
    $('div#item :checkbox:not(:disabled)').prop('checked', this.checked);
});

Answer 2

$('#chkSelectAll').click(function () {
    var checked_status = this.checked;

    $('div#item input[type=checkbox]').each(function () {
           if (!this.disabled) 
               this.checked = checked_status;
    });
});

or without the each loop :

$('#chkSelectAll').on('click', function() {
    var checked_status = this.checked;

    $('div#item input[type=checkbox]').prop('checked', function(i, prop) {
         return this.disabled ? prop : checked_status;
    });
});

Answer 3

Or you may also use the :not selector as follows:

$('#chkSelectAll').click(function () {
    var checked_status = this.checked;
    $('div#item input[type=checkbox]:not(:disabled)').each(function () {
               this.checked = checked_status;
    });
});

Answer 4

Check all except disable

$('input:checkbox:not(:disabled)').attr('checked', 'checked');

Uncheck all except disable

$('input:checkbox:not(:disabled)').removeAttr('checked');

Answer 5

I'd personally suggest this solution if you want select all rows except disabled one.

Just add this code in checkbox input(HTML)

onclick="$('input[name*=\'selected\']:not(:disabled)').prop('checked',this.checked);"

Answer 6

Use not() to exclude things with a disabled attribute.

$('#chkSelectAll').click(function () {
    var checked_status = this.checked;

    $('div#item input[type=checkbox]').not("[disabled]").each(function () {
               this.checked = checked_status;
    });
});

more concise

$('#chkSelectAll').click(function () {
    var checked_status = this.checked;
    $('div#item input[type=checkbox]').not(":disabled").prop("checked", checked_status);
});
