OVERVIEW
========

Inspired by wrunt's code for 4.7 [1], the Checkall module for 5.0 gives the
Javascript a very nice facelift with jQuery. Use this module to add checkboxes
to your forms that check or uncheck every checkbox in an "edit-" group.
Implementation is very simple using the Forms API, and the checkbox itself is
rendered via Javascript when the page loads (and excluded for users who have
opted not to enable the checkall module). An administration settings page
allows site owners to enable a checkall box for any form on the site.
(Right now this works for comments, posts, and user pages.)

Some functionality still in the works, like extending the administration
settings options and better customization of the box, but the module itself
should be good to go. The regular expression for element matching was relaxed
a little to allow for selecting all the boxes in a checkboxes element defined
through the Forms API. Please report issues here in the issue tracker, and feel
free to add to the comments how this module has come in handy for you.

Thank you wrunt for the initial concept!


SUPPORT AND FUTURE OF THIS MODULE
=================================

- Development of the Drupal 5 branch of the module is frozen, and only support
  for bug reports will be given.

- Further development will take place only in the Drupal 6 branch of the module.

- Drupal 6 already implements a checkall gadget for checkboxes in tables, such
  as those found in Administration -> Content. However, it doesn't support this
  feature for checkboxes located in other places.
