Question

<td style="display:none;">
                        <span class="runId">4</span><span class="processName">Get End-Of-Day Reuters Feed Rates</span>
                        <span class="runId">130</span><span class="processName">Get End-Of-Day Bloomberg Feed Rates</span>
                        <span class="runId">133</span><span class="processName">CapVolsCalibration AllCurrencies EOD</span>
                        <span class="runId">228</span><span class="processName">GBP Basis Adjustment</span>
                </td>

Hey guys, how would I loop through this <td> in JQuery and for each group of two span elements, get the text() of the runId and the processName elements.

Answer 1

Functional programming to the rescue:

var data = $td.children('span.runId').map(function() {
   return {runId: $(this).text(), processName: $(this).next().text()};
}).get();

Structure the data how ever you want to.
