I’ve been puzzled for some time as to why Prototype doesn’t allow us to set and get values from checkboxes and radio buttons. I finally needed this functionality at work and, with none of this obvious bit of functionality in the 1.6.1 release, I wrote my own extensions.

You can find them on GitHub. I added a bit of example code that you can check out here, too.
