jQueryUI accordion with checkboxes

I'm trying to put a checkbox in each of my accordion headings to indicate whether something should be disabled or not. The checkbox shows up fine, however, its not clickable as the whole accordion header is linked to the <a> tag. Putting the checkbox outside the <a> tag makes the checkbox appear underneath the heading, which is not what I want, and 开发者_开发知识库it still isn't clickable either.

<div id="accordion">
    <h3><a href="#">Text <span id="id">More text<input type="checkbox"/></span></a></h3>
    <div>content etc</div>
</div>

You can use stopPropagation() to fix this

example jsfiddle

something like

$('#accordion input[type="checkbox"]').click(function(e) {
    e.stopPropagation();
});

I would be taking the input control out of the hyperlink.

<h3><a href="#">Text</a><span id="id">More text<input type="checkbox"/></span></h3>

<input type="checkbox" onclick="event.stopPropagation()" />

Try setting the checkbox to checked in the acordion click event, using

<input type="checkbox" name="foo" />

in the html and

$('input[name=foo]').attr('checked', true);

in the event.
