js:
------------------------------------------------
function stillWork(id) {
if ($(id).attr('checked') == true)
{
alert('check');
}
if ($(id).attr('checked') == false)
{
alert('uncheck');
}
}
-------------------------------------------------
html:
------------------------------------------------
<input id="still_working_1" name="still_working" onclick='stillWork
("#still_working_1"); return false;' type="checkbox">
------------------------------------------------
(theres more to the html but is this enough?)
