Question

I have this code below. I don’t know why inArray() doesn’t output 0. Any idea?

var client = new Array();

function removeClient(id){

  alert(id);    //prints 17
  alert(client);   //prints 17
  alert(typeof(id));  //this prints "number"
  alert(typeof(client));  //this prints "object"
  alert($.inArray(id, client));   //this prints "-1", why?

}

Regards

You probably populated the array with the string '17' and not the number 17. That’s why it returns -1.
