How to check/toggle a checkbox in script

Simple question that I can't seem to find an answer to. I'm building a PDF form using LiveCycle. I have some radio buttons. When I select a particular radio button, I want it to also select/toggle a checkbox, called "checkbox1" for example. I assume that I need to do this in a script. How do I toggle a PDF form checkbox in Javascript?

form1.Body.RadioButton1::click - (javascript, client)

// Toggle form1.Body.checkbox1

Since your question is about an XFA form, I'm moving this to the LiveCycle Designer forum: LiveCycle Designer

Some times checkboxes have different value either because you changed it or it was implemented by another program...

To make sure you want to check a checkbox, the code that will work at any time would be the following

but normally if the value of your checbox is 1 and 0, you can just use this :
