make circular checkbox using jquery

Question

using xml reading of contents of a particular thing i am adding checkboxes and its description.But the problem is that i want visual of my checkbox like radiobutton but it should work like checkbox.I mean i can check and uncheck it.Moreover on space of tick(in checkboxes),it should be dot(may be of any color if possible).

$(xml).find("Layer[Name='"+layerName+"']").find("IndustryComponent").each(function()
            {
                var layerDesciption= $(this).attr('Name');
                if($(this).is(':empty'))
                {
                    $(".InsideLayerContainer").append("<input type='checkbox' name='' value='' disabled='true'><label>"+layerDesciption+"</label><br/>");   
                }
                else
                {
                    $(".InsideLayerContainer").append("<input type='checkbox' name='' value=''><label>"+layerDesciption+"</label><br/>");
                }
            });

I wouldn't really recommend it, but you can always make radio buttons work like checkboxes, if that's what you're really after ?

$('input[type="radio"]').on('click', function() {
    this.checked = !$(this).data('checked')
    $(this).data('checked', !$(this).data('checked'));
});

You need to use a image overlay for that.

Create two images one for unchecked view and one for checked view then based on the click value update a hidden checkbox and change the visible image also
