The checkbox has the following methods:

`enable` enable a disabled checkbox

       $("input[type='checkbox']").checkboxradio('enable');

`disable` disable a checkbox

      $("input[type='checkbox']").checkboxradio('disable');

`refresh` update the checkbox
  If you manipulate a checkbox via JavaScript, you must call the refresh method on it to update the visual styling.

      $("input[type='checkbox']:first").attr("checked",true).checkboxradio("refresh");
