6You're not new here (32 questions). Certainly you must be aware that you can search stackoverflow. – user113716 Jun 08 '10 at 21:03

el.is(':checked')
That's the jQuery way. At its core, though, it's just a bit more parsing to get down to el[0].checked, using the raw DOM property, so take whichever you prefer. The DOM method is probably better for actually testing an element, whereas :checked is better for selecting it in the first place.

`el[0].checked`, no reason to not use the DOM property when in an `if` statement, it's much faster :) – Nick Craver Jun 08 '10 at 21:03
