Hi,
How to check a checkbox added in a table by clicking anywhere in the table row?

You could add an onclick handler to the tr, passing the id of the checkbox:

Code:

<tr onclick="checkCheckbox('checkbox1');">

then have a function such as:

Code:

function checkCheckbox(checkboxId)
{
  var chk = document.getElementById(checkboxId);
  if (chk) chk.checked = true;
}
