Question

I need to select all values from following input fields to their respective divs.. see bellow

<div id='table_row_div'>
  <div id='txtbox'><input type=text name='from' value='<?php echo $someVal?>'></div>
  <div id='splited'>
    <div new="0"><div>i want text's splited value here</div>
    <div new="1"><div>i want text's splited value here</div>
    <div new="2"><div>i want text's splited value here</div>
  </div>
</div>

These input text fileds contains (1,0,0), (0,1,1), (1,0,1) type values…
The above block is about 49 times… and i want an automated system that splits the text value, and push only “one” character on each next div of attr(new);

how can i do this using jquery. i tried following type of code..

var inputVal = $("#table_row_div #txtbox input");
var arrayFromDB = inputVal.val().split(',');


inputVal.closest('div').closest('div').find('div[new~="0"]').text(arrayFromDB[0]);
inputVal.closest('div').closest('div').find('div[new~="1"]').text(arrayFromDB[1]);
inputVal.closest('div').closest('div').find('div[new~="2"]').text(arrayFromDB[2]);

But this doesn’t work…

Answer 1

First things first – don’t use an ID more than once. IDs are designed to be unique.

Change your IDs for classes if they’re not going to be unique.

You can implement the solution you need like this:

HTML

<div class='table_row_div'>
    <div>
        <input type='text' class='txtbox' name='from' value='<?php echo $someVal?>'>
    </div>
    <div class='split'>
        <div new="0">First split value</div>
        <div new="1">Second split value</div>
        <div new="2">Third split value</div>
    </div>
</div>

jQuery

$('.txtbox').each(function() {
    var arrayFromDB = $(this).val().split(',');
    var splitDiv = $(this).closest('.table_row_div').find('.split');
    $('div[new~="0"]', splitDiv).text(arrayFromDB[0]);
    $('div[new~="1"]', splitDiv).text(arrayFromDB[1]);
    $('div[new~="2"]', splitDiv).text(arrayFromDB[2]);
});
