Jquery : Checkbox not getting checked in IE7

I'm trying to check a checkbox, i've tried doing the following :-

  1. $('#someId').attr('checked','checked');

  2. $('#someId').attr('checked', true);

both the above work for ie8,ff but not for ie7!!

I'm using an older version of jquery (1.4.2) so using .prop() is not possible.

You can always go the native Javascript way:

// Get element using jQuery
var myCheckbox = $('#someId').get(0);

// Make it checked old school style.
myCheckbox.checked = true;

Edit:

Of course: document.getElementById("someId") will get you the element totally jQuery independend
