Comment on jQuery: Check For Non-Empty Input Fields by Aaron

Aaron — Fri, 29 May 2009 04:03:22 +0000

I’m not sure what to say, my code does work and I’ve tested it in application and also again just now in Firebug. I’d check your HTML for hidden fields, or just do a bit of debugging to find the field that is being reported back to give you a length of 1.

Your code is actually incorrect as a solution to the problem I was trying to solve here. You’re chaining a single element function against a function that returns an array. In jQuery issuing the val() function against an array of elements will issue the val() function against the first element. In this case it will be an input element that is non-blank, and so your length will always be > 0, as you’re just getting the length of the string.

In my example I am trying to check if there are any elements that contain some data, so I’m trying to find the length of the array of input elements that aren’t blank.

Let me know if you have any further questions.

Cheers :)

doesn’t work
in debugger I can see that length is always 1
it works if I write code like this:

row.find(’input[value!=""]‘).val().length > 0

cheers

Some of these principles can also be used towards figuring out a company/brand name also.

Theres a lot to be said in a company/brand name which many people forget about when coming up with a name to use. It can actually affect how the identity (logo) will be designed to suit the name.

Thanks! This has been nagging me for some time and it’s hindered some of the functionality of my work, like having to wait for something to finish loading before making another Ajax call.

The topic is quite trendy on the Internet at the moment. What do you pay the most attention to while choosing what to write about?
