How to use a reference variable in a jQuery? -
i learned using reference variable faster using $() every line of code (see previous question): jquery - okay use $('#elementid') everytime?. question how can use reference variable maximize power of jquery? please see example below:
without reference variable:
var valueofselected = $('#selectelementid option:selected').val(); with reference variable (pseudo-code):
var selectelement = $('#selectelementid'); var valueofselected = $(selectelement).selectedoption.val(); note selectedoption.val() pseudo-code here. there such function anyway?
you can use .find() find nested option.
var selectelement = $('#selectelementid'); var valueofselected = selectelement.find('option:selected').val(); ...but because select element, can use val()[docs] method directly.
var selectelement = $('#selectelementid'); var valueofselected = selectelement.val(); this give value of selected option.
