checkbox inside an update panel does not get its state
<p>I have 2 checkboxes inside an Updatepanel:</p>

<pre><code>&lt;asp:UpdatePanel&gt;
    &lt;asp:CheckBox CssClass="checkboxDivE"/&gt;
    &lt;asp:CheckBox CssClass="checkboxDivE"/&gt;
&lt;asp:UpdatePanel&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>in js, jquery:</p>

<pre><code>$('.checkboxDivE').live('click', function (e) {

   alert($(this).is(':checked')); // always giving false result

});
</code></pre>

<p>markup:</p>

<pre><code>&lt;span class="checkboxDivE" title="Export a trip"&gt;&lt;input id="ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_GridView_Trips_ctl02_checkboxDivE" type="checkbox" name="ctl00$ContentPlaceHolder1$GridView_Trips$ctl02$checkboxDivE"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;

&lt;span class="checkboxDivE" title="Export a trip"&gt;&lt;input id="ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_GridView_Trips_ctl03_checkboxDivE" type="checkbox" name="ctl00$ContentPlaceHolder1$GridView_Trips$ctl03$checkboxDivE"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>Whenever I check or uncheck the checkbox, the result is always false?</p>

<p>I have spent hours for finding a solution but I could not! is it a problem with jquery inside an updatePanel?</p>
