jQuery selector of name attribute for different element types

Question

I have a table of rows. In one of the columns, some rows have a span with static text, some rows have a select with values to choose from. All elements in that one column have the same name attribute. In my form submit, I iterate thru the rows and want to get the values for all columns. I would prefer to have one jQuery selector statement to get the value from that element (span or select with name attribute of "materialValue"). How would I do that with jQuery? Here follows the html snippet. ```

Accepted Answer

All you need is an attribute selector:

```
$("[name='MaterialValue']")
```

Also, you are missing closing quotes after your attribute `name` in your html
