Question

I used a code:

jQuery.fn.MyFunction = function(){
return this.each(function() {
    attributes = "test";

    return attributes;
});}

But when I call

 var1 = $(this).MyFunction();alert(var1);

I got an [object], but not the “test”.

How to allow jquery plugin return a some value?

Answer 1

jQuery plugins are generally designed to return a jQuery object so you can chain method calls:

jQuery("test").method1().method2() ...

If you want to return something else, use the following syntax:

jQuery.fn.extend({
    myFunction: function( args ) {
            attributes = "test";

            return attributes;
    }
});

, or access it via its index using [].
