This worked for detecting the click, but not stopping the check from showing up:
$('input:checkbox').click(function(e) {
e.stopPropagation();
if($(this).attr('checked') == true) {
console.log('thinks its checked');
} else {
console.log('not checked!!');
}
});
Adding a preventDefault(); calls stops the check from showing up, but
then the attr('checked') always returns true. If I were to take a
guess the act of preventing the default action means the checkbox
processing never hits the 'checked' attribute, so it is always in the
default state. In this case the default state would be unchecked, so
any click on it would mean it was being 'checked'.
