Small tip to get the status of checkbox

Hi all,
It  took me long time to get it… I wanted to check if a checkbox was checked or not.
So I used:
var checkbox = document.getElementById("checkbox_id").value;
Wrong! Wrong! Wrong!
the right way is:
var checkbox = document.getElementById("checkbox_id").checked;
which return true or false. Minor details wasted me lots of time…
