jquery function doesn't executed

Question

i am using this jQuery function but when i run my application this function doesn't executes.

actually control goes to this func.but doesn't go inside this to execute code in it.

what is the reason??

this func.is used for check uncheck of radio.

$("input[type='radio']").click(function () {
    var previousValue = $(this).attr('previousValue');
    var name = $(this).attr('name');
    if (previousValue == 'checked') {
        $(this).removeAttr('checked');
        $(this).attr('previousValue', false);
    } else {
        $("input[name=" + name + "]:radio").attr('previousValue', false);
        $(this).attr('previousValue', 'checked');
    }
});

i got this func.i jst paste it.i think some .js file i have to include. previousValue means the presvious status of radio. — user2243331, Oct 31 '13 at 06:11

Use .prop() instead of .attr()

and

.change() instated of .click()

$("input[type='radio']").change(function () {
    var previousValue = $(this).prop('previousValue');
    var name = $(this).prop('name');
    if (previousValue == 'checked') {
        $(this).removeAttr('checked');
        $(this).prop('previousValue', false);
    } else {
        $("input[name=" + name + "]:radio").prop('previousValue', false);
        $(this).prop('previousValue', 'checked');
    }
});

Read .prop() vs .attr()

i simply want to check n uncheck radio button. so i implemented onclick event.but issue is that when i click first time it returns true.but it should return false.when i use onmousedown event it returns false for first click.as expected.can u explain me why is it so. and also pls provide some solution for this. – user2243331 Oct 31 '13 at 06:37

this is a function handleRadioClick(id,e) { if(!HCList[id].setObjDetail()) { } var targetElement = e.target || e.srcElement; optionState = targetElement.checked; if(optionState==true) { targetElement.checked = false;} } – user2243331 Oct 31 '13 at 06:47
the optionState in the line optionState = targetElement.checked; returns true at first click – user2243331 Oct 31 '13 at 06:49
