how get and element using jquery

Question

I know how to choose a element using the Attribute Equals Selector [name="value"] but I feeling a little lost when I try to find a check box by his name and value.

this is a example of the checkbox

<input id="check-box-nat-Español" name="kid[native_languages][]" type="checkbox" value="50f97f5304fec25b00000001">

I have a lot of checkbox with the same name, so I need to find the checkbox using the name and the value.

I'm trying this, but it did not work.

$("input[name="kid[native_languages][]"][value=50f97f5304fec25b00000001]").attr("checked",true);​

Any help please!

You have error while selecting. You should use:

$("input[name='kid[native_languages][]'][value='50f97f5304fec25b00000001']").attr("checked",true)

Use single quotes around your selector so that they wont interfere with the ones inside

$('input[name="kid[native_languages][]"][value=50f97f5304fec25b00000001]')

$("input[name='kid[native_languages][]'][value=50f97f5304fec25b00000001]").attr("checked",true);
