use Jquery to check checkbox in Jquery buttonset

I have some checkboxes in a button set and I want to use Jquery to check one of the checkboxes.

It works, however, the visual representation of the checkbox does not update. ie, after executing $('#chk').attr('checked',true); the checked value is true, but the checkbox apears unchecked.

Demoed here: http://jsfiddle.net/kralco626/jzVjT/1/

Thanks!

Try

'true'

rather than

true

Attributes are always string values.

Edit:

Never mind. No clue on buttonset functionality but things aren't behaving normally. Check the documentation for the API.

You need to call the refresh method on the buttonset to update the visual state after programmatic changes to the checked state, like this:

$("#test").buttonset("refresh");

You can test it out here.
