How to Select an Element by Name With Jquery

How can I select an element by name with jQuery?

You can use the jQuery attribute selector:

$('td[name="tcol1"]')   // Matches exactly 'tcol1'
$('td[name^="tcol"]' ) // Matches those that begin with 'tcol'
$('td[name$="tcol"]' ) // Matches those that end with 'tcol'
$('td[name*="tcol"]' ) // Matches those that contain 'tcol'

JQuery Select element by name class and name

you could use

$("[name=Hola]");

or to improve performance:

$(".SePresu[name=Hola]");

the more specific you are in your selectors, the better.

Update in response to comment.

You can then also filter by type text:

$(".SePresu[name=Hola] :text");

Anyway, even if youo have multiple elements with the same class, you would be already filtering by name, so it would select the input text and not the password.

IF you had more than one element with the same class AND name, then you would need to be more specific, unless of course yoy wanted to select ALL those elements.

jQuery get element by name

actually you don't need jQuery to write it more concisely:

document.querySelectorAll('[name=DPdays] td')[i].id

but if you prefer jQuery

$('[name=DPdays] td')[i].id

How do I get the selected element by name and then get the selected value from a dropdown using jQuery?

Your selector is a little off, it's missing the trailing ]

var mySelect = $('select[name=' + name + ']')

you may also need to put quotes around the name, like so:

var mySelect = $('select[name="' + name + '"]')

How to select specific form element in jQuery?

It isn't valid to have the same ID twice, that's why #name only finds the first one.

You can try:

$("#form2 input").val('Hello World!');

Or,

$("#form2 input[name=name]").val('Hello World!');

If you're stuck with an invalid page and want to select all #names, you can use the attribute selector on the id:

$("input[id=name]").val('Hello World!');

In jQuery, how do I select an element by its name attribute?

This should do it, all of this is in the documentation, which has a very similar example to this:

$("input[type='radio'][name='theme']").click(function() {
var value = $(this).val();
});

I should also note you have multiple identical IDs in that snippet. This is invalid HTML. Use classes to group set of elements, not IDs, as they should be unique.

jQuery Select by Name and ID

 $('#Sample1[name="Sample2"]').attr('checked','checked');

but elements can only have one id so maybe you want class instead of id

  $('.Sample1[name="Sample2"]').attr('checked','checked');

then your html

<table>
<tr>
<td>
<input type="radio" name="Sample1" class="Sample" value="1" />
<input type="radio" name="Sample1" class="Sample" value="1" />
</td>
<td>
<input type="radio" name="Sample2" class="Sample1" value="1" />
<input type="radio" name="Sample2" class="Sample2" value="1" />
</td>
</tr>
</table>

EDIT

made some changes here is a working demo
