Question

I have this jQuery .each function so I can traverse all the UL hmtl tags. Then I will get there id attribute. But the problems is, How can I get each value and place it to another variable so I can use it to .sortable UI function. Here is my code:

jQuery('.b ul').each(function(){
  jQuery(this).attr('id');
});

example: the output of the .each function when I do alert is “0 1 2”. How can I place it to another variable? So it would be use in:

jQuery(variable here).sortable(){ });

The code above will get the ID attribute. Anyone who can help?

Thanks,
Justin

No need to use the ID’s at all. You can provide jQuery’s $() function with more than just ID’s:

$('.b ul').sortable();

Or if you are using multiple libraries (jQuery, MooTools, etc.):

jQuery('.b ul').sortable();
