jQuery get checked checkboxes from name[]

Question

I have checkboxes like so: ``` ``` How would I alert the price[] to see what is checked? I am very new at jquery :(

Accepted Answer

First, you can get the checkboxes by `name`:

```
var checkboxes = $('input[name="price[]"]');
```

Then, to get the values of the `checked` ones, you can filter by the pseudo selector `:checked`, and then collect their `value`s:

```
checkboxes.filter(":checked").map(function () {
    return this.value;
}).get()
```
