Dynamic Checkboxes

+

2019-07-30

-

Checkboxes are used quite frequently on forms across the web. Whether you're selecting a pricing plan during a site's sign-up process or just simply selecting to opt-out from a newsletter, you have most likely interacted with some form of checkbox element.

-

What if we could make everyday checkboxes more beautiful and more intuitive? It's easier than you think. We only need a small amount of CSS and JavaScript to make considerable improvements to your average checkbox UX.

Let's get into it.

What we are building

+

Take a look and play around with the CodePen below to get an idea of what we are going to build. The premise is a simple add-on pricing form which calculates the additional monthly total to the user in real-time.

The Structure (HTML)

-

As always, we will start by breaking down the "bones" of the HTML structure for this checkbox form. Let's take a look at the HTML in it's entirety (don't worry, it is a lot more simple than it seems at first glance):

-
<h2>Add-ons</h2>
 
-<input class="checkbox-btn" name="checkbox-collection" id="checkbox-1" type="checkbox" value="49">
-<label class="checkbox-label" for="checkbox-1">

- - i) The first span holds the static currency symbol
- - ii) The second span is where our updated cost will be injected
- - iii) This input field is required for us to take-in the value of the associated :checked inputs and add them together. This current value is then used for the injection into the second span
- - iv) The final span simply holds the static monthly duration content
