Question

This is my code http://jsfiddle.net/Cfa6c/8/

Basically what I need to do is get the text value of the elements .email_module and put them into an array. So if there was

<span class = "email_module">
[e-mail]
</span>

<span class = "email_module">
[e-mail]
</span>

the variables emails would be [e-mail],[e-mail].

I have tried this code

$('.email_module').map(function () { return $(this).text(); });

but it doesn’t work, could anybody help? Thanks!

You were close using $.map but forgot to convert map result (which is jquery collection) to the array with .get() method:

var emails = $('.email_module').map(function() {
    return $(this).text();
}).get();
