How can i modify this code to add a checked true code using javascript

<script type="text/javascript">
    function enter(obj) {
        var tr = obj.parentNode.parentNode;
        var cellIndex = obj.parentNode.cellIndex;
        var rowIndex = obj.parentNode.parentNode.rowIndex;
        if (event.keyCode == 37) //Left
        {
            if (cellIndex > 0)
                tr.parentNode.rows[rowIndex].cells[cellIndex - 1].getElementsByTagName('INPUT')[0].focus();

            return;
        }
        if (event.keyCode == 38) //Up
        {
            if (rowIndex > 1)
                tr.parentNode.rows[rowIndex - 1].cells[cellIndex].getElementsByTagName('INPUT')[0].focus();

            return;
        }
        if (event.keyCode == 39) //Right
        {
            if (cellIndex < tr.cells.length - 1)
                tr.parentNode.rows[rowIndex].cells[cellIndex + 1].getElementsByTagName('INPUT')[0].focus();
     
            return;
        }
        if (event.keyCode == 40) //Down
        {
            if (rowIndex < tr.parentNode.rows.length - 1)
