Question

I’d like to be able to do that kind of selection:

$('input[value between 6 and 11]');

Which would give me the 9 and 10.
Is there a way to do that ?

Answer 1

You can do this with .filter() like this:

$("input").filter(function() { 
  return $(this).val() >= 6 && $(this).val() <= 11; 
}).somethingHere();

If you need to use this often, you could make it a selector as well:

jQuery.expr[':'].between = function(a, b, c) { 
   var args = c[3].split(',');
   var val = parseInt(jQuery(a).val());
   return val >= parseInt(args[0]) && val <= parseInt(args[1]);
};

Then you can select by:

$("input:between(6, 11)")

Just change the >= and <= if you don’t want the range to be inclusive.
