listbox with checkbox, with select All option

Question

This is the type of listbox, I am looking for a jquery plugin, or something in Jquery or Kendo UI. I searched a lot but in vain. I need a listbox, where i bind to a datasource. The items in listbox should have checkbox, allowing user to check/uncheck. I also want an option of All item in the list, enabling user to select all items in listbox or unselect all items in listbox. Have u come across any plugin like that?

Answer 1

Have you seen: http://joelanman.com/2009/03/simple-multiple-selection-with-checkbox-lists-and-jquery/? It seems to do the trick without a plug in.

Answer 2

Did you consider using jqWidjects

http://www.jqwidgets.com/listbox-with-checkboxes/

they have opensource and paid APIs. see which one will best fit to your needs

if you want to stick to plugins you mentioned in your question then you can try kendo multiselect custom template

Answer 3

I have used this plugin before, and it more or less does what you describe:

Much nicer than a list box in my opinion, and simply generates automatically off a select element.
