Re: Change id for checkboxes

Yes, good idea.

By setting the 'div' property to 11, this actually wraps the
checkboxes in a div with a class set to '11', just like this:

<?php echo $form->input('Group',
array(
'label' => 'Group',
'type' => 'select',
'multiple' => 'checkbox',
'options' => array(1 => 'Pilot', 2 => 'Medical', 3 =>
'Other'),
'div' => 11)
);
?>

and then after, accessing the class of a checkbox with jQuery is as
simple as : $.id = $(this).parent().parent().attr('class');

Thanks a lot Jack.
