I am trying to get the value of an input text field.
the HTML is:
Class selectors are prefixed with a dot. Your .find()
is missing that so jQuery thinks you're looking for <myClass>
elements.
var myVar = $("#start").find('.myClass').val();
var myVar = $("#start").find('myClass').val();
needs to be
var myVar = $("#start").find('.myClass').val();
Remember the CSS selector rules require "." if selecting by class name. The absence of "." is interpreted to mean searching for <myclass></myclass>
.
You can get value of id,name or value in this way. class name my_class
var id_value = $('.my_class').$(this).attr('id'); //get id value
var name_value = $('.my_class').$(this).attr('name'); //get name value
var value = $('.my_class').$(this).attr('value'); //get value any input or tag
var myVar = $("#start").find('.myClass').first().val();
You can also get the value by the following way
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#start").click(function(){
alert($(this).find("input[class='myClass']").val());
});
});
