check all - check box problem

I am not able to create a check box or a button that can check and uncheckall the check boxes that i have created. It can be a check box or button that checks and unchecks all the check boxes.

<form name="czar" action='<%= url_for(:action => "list_supplier") %>' method='POST'> <% i = 0 %> <% @hotels.each do |hotel| %> <%= check_box('hotel_', '', {}, hotel.group_name+i.to_s, '') %></td> <% i = i + 1 %> <% end %> <input type='submit' value='want to approve'/>

thanks in advance, Czar

I think the best way is to use javascript for checking and unchecking all. Here is a good example that worked for me when I was doing something similar. http://snippets.dzone.com/posts/show/2818 also railscasts.com has a good screencast on checkboxes you might find helpful.
