Yes. It may be most helpful to…
document.getElementsByClassNamedocument.getElementsByTagName(though, the tag is theinputtag, so you may get other elements as well)However, that is just getting the elements; but as you’ve stated, you will still need to iterate through each one to do whatever comparison you like. jQuery will allow you to do this kind of thing more easily, but “Plain Ole’ Javascript” cannot.
