   </div>
</div>


this is my ts file..


 selectedTermsArray: string[] = [];
 isfrmChecked:any;

 onCheckboxSelected(event: any, isChecked: boolean)
 {
   if (isChecked) {
     this.selectedTermsArray.push(event.target.value);
   }
   else {
     let index = this.selectedTermsArray.indexOf(event.target.value);
     this.selectedTermsArray.splice(index, 1);
   }
 }

 removeField(index) {
         this.selectedTermsArray.splice(index, 1);
 }

Solution

  • You need to handle the checkbox status while removing the item from selectedTermsArray array.

    Update you input checkbox like below. Added an ngModel to maintain the status of checkbox and replace onChange event with ngModelChange.

    <div *ngFor="let list of TermsArray">
        <input
          name="checkboxName"
          class="checkmark"
          id="checkbox1"
          type="checkbox"
          value="{{list.Name}}"
          [(ngModel)]="list.isChecked"
          (ngModelChange)="onModelChange($event,list.Name)"
        />
        {{list.Name}}
    </div>
    

    Your onModelChange function is like below.

    onModelChange(isChecked, value) {
        if (isChecked) {
          this.selectedTermsArray.push(value);
        } else {
          let index = this.selectedTermsArray.indexOf(value);
          this.selectedTermsArray.splice(index, 1);
        }
    }
    

    And then while removing the item from below, update the main array checkbox status like this.

    removeField(index, value) {
        this.selectedTermsArray.splice(index, 1);
        this.TermsArray.map((x) => {
          if (x.Name === value) {
            x.isChecked = false;
          }
        });
    }
