I want to add an argument of a function to a string (iam not sure if thats the right word)

function changeChart(form, chart, bar) {

            //chart 2 (left)
            $(form).change(function (){

                console.log(form);

                $(form + "option:selected").each(function(){
                //rest of the function

I want the form added to the selection in Jquery.

Is this the right way?

    If form is a string, you need to be sure there’s a space before "option:selected".

    $(form + " option:selected").each(function(){

    If form is an element, pass it to the jQuery functin, then use find:

    $(form).find("option:selected").each(function(){

    Or use the context parameter (though IMO the code is less clear): 

    $("option:selected", form).each(function(){

    Although, since you’re in the handler, you could just use this to reference the form element.

    $(this).find("option:selected").each(function(){
