Access to HTML forms via jQuery

Question

How do I get an inputs content in jQuery. Like this option in JavaScript:

document.forms["Register"]["userName].value

Thanks

don't you have any id on your inputs? id selectors are better choice. — Jai

Use like :

$('form[name="form1"] [name="name"]').val();

See example :

You can use this:

$('form[name="Register"] [name="userName"]').val();

using .filter():

$('form[name="Register"] input').filter(function(){
    return $(this).attr('name') === 'userName'
}).val();
