Edit html of list item Template on list Item tap

[Prakash23]

Hello, i m using a list with following template -

<input type="checkbox" name="selectedCar" value={name}/> {name}

and I want to check the checkbox when the list item is tapped, but I m unable to achieve it, i tried with following code -

onListItemTap: function(dataview, index, target, record, e, options) {
target.select("input").set("checked","checked");
}

can somebody explain what I m doing wrong here...

Does target.select("input") actually result in a single input element?

If so, have you tried el.checked = true?

yes, you are right, the select is returning an array of elements, I got it working with -

target.select("input",e.target).set({checked:"checked"});

now, as I defined the root element, I only get one element with select and is checked successfully.

err, i m stuck again :S

i m able to mark checkbox, but the issue is that this list is shown of a navigation view, so when user presses back , and if he comes back to this screen(list) again , then the item tap event is not firing, any idea why this is happening?
