ok, that is much better context
well this is an idea i havent tested this on an actual piece of code but should
work with lil modifications in the case does not work
assume fn.ready
//get local storage or cookie value and store this on var setting
if(setting === true){
// code to display the correct content here
}else{
// code to display the other content here
}
// in case this is the settings page where the checkbox is
$('#my_checkbox').attr('checked', stored value);
$('#my_checkbox').bind('click', function(){
if(this.checked){
// save to local storage or cookie as true
}else{
// save to local storage or cookie as false
}
});
i hope this helps.
