jQuery checkbox checked state changed event

Bind to the change event instead of click. However, you will probably still need to check whether or not the checkbox is checked:
Example below shows and hide a div when checkbox checked or unchecked

$("#your_checkbox").change(function() {
    if(this.checked) {
        $("#div").show();
    }
    else{
        $("#div").hide();
    }
});
