Question

I am having 2 divs:

<div id="1">
    First name: <input type="text" name="FirstName" value="Mickey" /><br />
    Last name: <input type="text" name="LastName" value="Mouse" /><br />
    <input type="submit" value="Submit" />
</div>

<div id="2">
    First name: <input type="text" name="FirstName" value="Mickey" /><br />
    Last name: <input type="text" name="LastName" value="Mouse" /><br />
    <input type="submit" value="Submit" />
</div>

How would you get/set the First Name and Last Name for the div number, div 1 or 2 ?

Thanks

Answer 1

You can use find and val:

// Get
var firstName = $("#1").find("[name='FirstName']").val();

// Set
$("#1").find("[name='LastName']").val("New Last Name");
