I have a below checkbox in my phtml
file
<input type="checkbox" id="my_checkbox" name="my_checkbox">
Below code is used to pass params to controller file
$('checkbox_id').observe('click', function(e) {
var checked = this.checked;
});
new Ajax.Request("<?php echo $formAction;?>", {
method: 'post',
postBody: "mypostdata="+$('my_value').value,
onComplete: function(data) {
var mydata = data.responseText.evalJSON(true);
$('shopping-cart-totals-table').update(mydata);
}
});
How can I check if the checkbox is clicked or not and pass its vale in postBody
as params to my controller file ?
For example,
If checkbhox clicked, value = yes/true
If not, value = no/false
How can I pass the aboove value, based on user's click as params ?
Thanks

Use this to determine if the checkbox is checked and store it in a variable as a bool value.
After that for postBody you could use:
Where isChecked is the js variable you stored the bool value in and it will be passed to the post param: isChecked
After Edit:
The checked variable in observer function should be a global variable. The var checked as it stands is local to the observer function.
you could do something like:
Then your Ajax code should become:
Here checkboxMy should be the id of the checkbox you are trying to check the status of.
