Checkbox styling is not working | WordPress.org

If I add a custom style to a required checkbox with the code “class:bar” the style is added to the wrapper but, I would like to add a style to the checkbox itself. Much like how the regular text input fields work. Is this possible?

Styling of checkboxes is general controlled by the browser – see http://www.456bereastreet.com/lab/form_controls/checkboxes/

You can use something like jQuery to overide default browser behavior or try using the :checked pseudo-class in CSS3 – see Styling checkboxes and radio buttons using CSS.

I am aware that the styling of checkboxes is controlled by the browser. I don’t want the class there to style, I want it there as a hook for javascript.

My issue remains, I’d like to add a class to the checkbox itself instead of to the wrapper around it. Its strange that adding “class:bar” to a checkbox and an input would behave differently.
