Remember that JavaScript always acts upon the rendered html sent back to the browser after all variables have been resolved and all custom tags processed. That means you're dealing with a plain HTML <input type="checkbox" > control. The Struts tag attribute property translates to the HTML attribute name. Also, the Struts attribute styleId translates to the HTML attribute id. Therefore, with a tag like this:

<html-el:checkbox property="foo" styleId="fooId" />

you can use the following JavaScript code:

if (document.getElementById("fooId").checked) {
  // do something
}
