Jquery and a Checkbox

[Atrhick]

Hey guys I am trying to do something very simple but its not works as i want it to.

What I want to do is if the url in the browser mach http://www.MYSITE.com/live/category/0?live then I want to have jquery activate the checkbox with the id of only_live. currently this script is on a loop for some reason. please help me.

Here is my html

<td>
<input type="checkbox" id="only_live" name="only_live" onclick="this.form.submit();" value="true" />
</td>
<td>&nbsp; SOME TEXT</td>

Here is my Jquery

<script type="text/javascript">
$(function()
{
if(window.location == "http://www.MYSITE.com/live/category/0?live")
{
if($('#only_live').is(':checked'==false))
{
$('input[name=only_live]').attr('checked', true);
}
}
});
</script>

This line is the main problem

if($('#only_live').is(':checked'==false)) {

I think this is what you really wanted to do (jQuery 1.6 or higher)

if($('#only_live').prop('checked')==false)) {

Prior to jQuery 1.6 you can check .attr() instead. But be careful as the attr is "undefined" before the checkbox has actually been changed

if($('#only_live').attr('checked')==false)) {

you could also do

if($('#only_live').prop('checked','false')) {
