Question

I’m trying to compare one item <span class="x">123</span> with a group of items on one page to check if the first item mentioned already exists in the list:

<div class="y">
    <span class="z">123</span>
    <span class="z">234</span>
    <span class="z">345</span>
</div>

How could I get the values of <span class="z"> to be assigned to an array?

Answer 1

var arr = [];
$('.z').each(function(idx,el) {

      arr[idx]=parseInt($(this).text(),10);
});
