There are 3 ways to create checkbox :
- By direct html code
- By JS code, create each element, attributes, content and appendChild child to parent
- By JS code, with innerHTML and Template literal
By direct html code :
<div>
<input type="checkbox" name="color" id="red">
<label for="red">Red</label>
</div>
<div>
<input type="checkbox" name="color" id="green">
<label for="green">Green</label>
</div>
<div>
<input type="checkbox" name="color" id="Blue">
<label for="Blue">Blue</label>
</div>
<div>
<input type="checkbox" name="color" id="yellow">
<label for="yellow">Yellow</label>
</div>
By JS code, create each element, attributes, content and appendChild child to parent :
<body>
<div id="root"></div>
<script>
const root = document.getElementById("root");
const colors = ["Red", "Green", "Blue", "Yellow"];
colors.forEach((color) => {
// create id
const id = color;
// create label
const label = document.createElement("label");
label.setAttribute("for", id);
// create checkbox input element
const input = document.createElement("input");
input.type = "checkbox";
input.name = "color";
input.id = id;
input.value = color;
// appendChild child to parent
label.appendChild(input);
label.appendChild(document.createTextNode(color));
root.appendChild(label);
});
</script>
</body>
By JS code, with innerHTML and Template literal :
<body>
<div id="root"></div>
<script>
const root = document.getElementById("root");
const colors = ["Red", "Green", "Blue", "Yellow"];
const checkbox = colors.map((color)=>`<label for="${color}">
<input type="checkbox" name="color" id="${color}" value="${color}" >
${color}</label>
`
).join("");
root.innerHTML = checkbox;
</script>
</body>
