Google Chrome’s 29 Official Themes

google1

Google’s Theme Gallery for Chrome has gone live with 29 official themes & the Google Chrome themes website is now live .
Installing them is easier, just pick the one you like and click on the “Apply theme” button. The theme will download and in the download manager at the bottom of the Chrome browser window, simply select “open.”
After you have the new theme installed, you’ll see an option to return to the default theme. If you close that, you can revert in the Preferences area, under “Personal Stuff.”

The theme of the browser will be instantly changed after the download without having to restart it. Google Chrome does not come with a theme manager yet.
The only way to uninstall themes is to enter chrome://extensions/ in the address bar of the web browser. This internal page displays all installed Google Chrome themes with the option to uninstall them.

For the below html code snippet ,we can retreive the selected(checked) checkbox values into an javascript array for further processing.

<div>
<input type="checkbox" name="list_group" value="one" />
<input type="checkbox" name="list_group" value="two" />
<input type="checkbox" name="list_group" value="three" />
<input type="checkbox" name="list_group" value="four" />
<input type="checkbox" name="list_group" value="five" />
</div>

jQuery code to be used on onready or onclick event.

var values = new Array();
$.each($("input[@name='list_group']:checked"), function() {
values.push($(this).val());
});
