JQuery - list of string

Question

In JQuery, why do I get `information Undefined` with the following code? JS - right part is Undefined ``` var s = $("[name='CountAnswer']").val(); ``` HTML ``` ```

Accepted Answer

You are using equality comparion but you have to use wild card probably jquery attribute starts with `^` but the above statement will give value of first matched element. You can use each to iterate through all elements.

```
var s = $("[name^='CountAnswer']").val();
```

Iterating using each().

Live Demo

```
$("[name^='CountAnswer']").each(function(){
   alert($(this).val());
   //or
   alert(this.value);
});
```

Edit Based on OP comments. For getting the values of all matches.

Live Demo

```
strValues = $("[name^='CountAnswer']").map(function(){  
   return this.value;
}).get().join(',');
```
