Javascript – jsTree checkbox check_node is not working

javascriptjqueryjstree

jstree v1.0

I have just made modification on checkbox example: http://www.jstree.com/documentation/checkbox

My goal:
When checking any of the nodes I want all parent node to be checked (default behavior is not OK, because that is something partially selected which is not good for me)

based on tips and documentation i have extended the original example but I have found that the check_node method is not working. I have not noticed any effect.

Any tips or advice is welcomed.

<div id="demo1" class="demo">
    <ul>
        <li id="phtml_1">
            <a href="#">Root node 1</a>
            <ul>
                <li id="phtml_2" >
                    <a href="#">Child node 1</a>
                </li>
                <li id="phtml_3">
                    <a href="#">A Child node 2</a>
                </li>
            </ul>
        </li>
        <li id="phtml_4">
            <a href="#">Root node 2</a>
        </li>
        <li id="phtml_5">
            <a href="#">Root node 1</a>
            <ul>
                <li id="phtml_51">
                    <a href="#">Child node 1</a>
                </li>
                <li id="phtml_52">
                    <a href="#">A Child node 2</a>
                </li>
            </ul>
        </li>
        <li id="phtml_6">

            }
        }

    console.log('programaticcaly checking last parent node (not working)')
    //$(x).jstree('check_node',$('li#phtml_6'));
    $.jstree._reference("#demo1").check_node('li#phtml_6');

The following code was working for me...

var contact_list = $('#compose_contact_list');

    contact_list.jstree({
        "checkbox" : {
            "keep_selected_style" : false,
            "tie_selection" : false
        },
        "plugins" : [ "checkbox" ]
    });

    contact_list.on("check_node.jstree", function(event, data){
        alert(data.node.text);
    });
