Question

<ul>
    <li class="res"></li>
    <li class="res"></li>
    <li class="res selected"></li>
    <li class="res"></li>
</ul>

Using $(‘ul li.selected’).length I can check total number of “selected elements” BUT I’d like to check the serial number of the “selected element” (in that case 3)
Can you help me do that.
Thanks

Answer 1

What exactly do you mean by serial number?

The content?

 alert (  $('ul li.selected').text() );

The index?

 var listItem = $('ul li.selected');
 alert('Index: ' + $('ul li').index(listItem));
