jquery - JavaScript runtime error: Object doesn't support property or method 'prop' - Stack Overflow

My script is failing in calling prop(). I am getting the message:

JavaScript runtime error: Object doesn't support property or method 'prop'

$(document).ready(function() {
    $("input:checkbox").click(function () {
        if (!$(this).is(':checked')) {
            $(this).prop('checked', true);
            return;
        }
        var checkvalue = $(this).val();
        $('input:hidden[id*="_PropositieType"]').val(checkvalue);
        $("input:checkbox").not(this).removeAttr("checked");
    });
});

I am using IE 11 and jquery 1.5.1. I want it to work with all browsers.

• 1 I am not entirely sure, but I think .prop was not in jQuery as of version 1.5 – Niccolò Campolungo Commented Dec 2, 2015 at 10:32

Use j Query 1.6 or higher version

j Query 1.6+ uses

$('.Checkbox').prop('checked', true);
$('.Checkbox').prop('checked', false);

jQuery 1.5. and below

$('.Checkbox').attr('checked', true);
$('.Checkbox').attr('checked', false);

Try attr in place of prop. Because prop is available in jQuery version 1.6+.

Here you can find the plete info.
