Datatable and checkbox (check all) in the header

[SRS]

How to insert in datatable header checkbox to select all checkboxes in the list?

I have use the next code:

<p:dataTable id="transactionListNavigator" var="item" value="#{transactionListNavigator.lazyModel}" binding="#{transactionListNavigator.dataTable}" >
<p:column>
<f:facet name="header">
<h:selectBooleanCheckbox id="all_transactionIdChkb" name="all_transactionIdChkb" />
</f:facet>
<h:selectBooleanCheckbox id="transactionIdChkb" value="#{item.selected}"/>
</p:column>

When I click on this checkbox ("all_transactionIdChkb") - it checked and then unchecked automatically.

Code: Select all

<p:dataTable id="transactionListNavigator" var="item" value="#{transactionListNavigator.lazyModel}" binding="#{transactionListNavigator.dataTable}" >
   <p:column>
      <f:facet name="header">
         <h:selectBooleanCheckbox id="all_transactionIdChkb" name="all_transactionIdChkb" >
            <p:ajax update="transactionListNavigator" event="click" actionListener="someBean.selectAll"/>
         <h:selectBooleanCheckbox>
      </f:facet>
      <h:selectBooleanCheckbox id="transactionIdChkb" value="#{item.selected}"/>
   </p:column>

I want to select (check all) using JavaScript (jQuery) using something like this

Code: Select all

jQuery("input[id$=" + chbkAllId + "]").each(function()
    {
         this.checked = checked_status;
   });

and using

Code: Select all

 <h:selectBooleanCheckbox id="all_transactionIdChkb" name="all_transactionIdChkb" value="#{transactionListModel.showOrderAndClientId}">
              <p:ajax event="click" actionListener="#{transactionListBB.checkAll}"/>
       </h:selectBooleanCheckbox>
