JS

How to implement:

<script>

  $(function() {

    $("input").rlChecked();

    // or with options
    $("input").rlChecked({

      element: "<span>elements</span>", // html tag created to insert through the DOM
      checkboxes: "checkboxes", // parent class of checkboxes
      radios: "radios", // parent class of radio buttons
      tag: "li", // html tag parent for checkboxes and radio buttons
      bg: "span", // reference a settings.element for make use like a variable
      check: "checked", // sign a class when a checkbox is checked
      radio: "radio", // sign a class when a radio button is checked
      focus: "focus", // sign a class when accessed with keyboard a checkbox or radio button element
      disable: "disabled", // sign a class when a checkbox or radio button element have the disabled attribute
      hover: "hover" // sign a class when hover a checkbox or radio button element

    });

  });

</script>

// All options are variables that can be adapted by replacing the classes & || html element of your code.
