Hi Team

I am struggling to check and uncheck-box so it can populate datepicker. Does anyone know how to do this in jquery? Below this what i tried on the razor side

What I have tried:

<div class="form-check">
                                                <div class="col-xl-2">
                                                    @Html.CheckBoxFor(model => model.Lockuntil, new { @checked = "unchecked", @class = "rb" })
                                                    <label class="form-check-label" for="@Html.IdFor(model => model.Lockuntil)">Lockuntil</label>
                                                    @Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.DateColumn, new { @class = "datepicker17", id = "datepicker17" })


                                                </div>

                                            </div>

What i want, when a user click the checkbox-must bring datepicker in order to select date and time. when its unchecked it must dissapear not seeing.

Wrong control. A datepicker is not "on or off"; it's "popped", either using "on focus" or in response to a "button"; it's dismissed as soon as a user picks a date or "cancels" it.

Anything else is a "calendar" (control), which is used in a different context.

You'll need to use some simple Javascript:

HTML

@Html.CheckBoxFor(model => model.Lockuntil, new { @class = "rb", data_toggle = "hide-element", data_target = "#datepicker17" })
@Html.LabelFor(model => model.Lockuntil, new { @class = "form-check-label" })
@Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.DateColumn, new { id = "datepicker17" })

JavaScript

$(function(){
    var toggleHideElement = function(chk){
        var target = $(chk.getAttribute("data-target"));
        if (chk.checked) {
            target.removeClass("d-none").attr("aria-hidden", "false");
        }
        else {
            target.addClass("d-none").attr("aria-hidden", "true");
        }
    };
    
    // Change the state of the target element when the box is checked / unchecked:
    $(document).on("change", "input:checkbox[data-toggle='hide-element']", function(){ toggleHideElement(this); });
    
    // Set the initial state of the target element:
    $("input:checkbox[data-toggle='hide-element']").each(function(){ toggleHideElement(this); });
});
