Since you tag JQuery you can find it helpful

AAA <input type="checkbox" id="test" />
BBB <input type="checkbox" id="test1" />
CCC <input type="checkbox" id="test2" />

and

$( "input" ).on( "click", function() {
  // for a specific one, but you can add a foreach cycle if you need more 
  if($('#test').is(":checked")){
      alert('is checked!');
  }else {
      alert('is NOT checked!');
  }
});

Element IDs in a given document must be unique! Hence, change your HTML to something like below and take a look at the script.

 $(function() { $(":checkbox").on("change", function() { //When the id is test1 //And name is A //And it's checked if (this.id === "test1" && this["name"] === "A" && this.checked) { alert ("Checkbox with name A and ID test1 is checked"); } }); });

 <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script> <input name="A" id="test1" type="checkbox" value="A" /> <input name="B" id="test2" type="checkbox" value="B" /> <input name="C" id="test3" type="checkbox" value="C" /> <input name="C" id="test4" type="checkbox" value="D" />

Id's must be Unique.... otherwise when you use document.getElementById();

It will select First occurence of specific Id...

Instead implement like this..

<input name="A"  type="checkbox" value="A" /> 
<input name="B"  type="checkbox" value="B" />
<input name="C"  type="checkbox" value="C" />
<input name="C"  type="checkbox" value="D" />

and trigger a event on click oncheck box and use document.getElementsByName('');
