itterating through select controls for validation
I have a web page below with some jquery to catch the submit of a form ...now in that code before i submit the form I want to check the select box combos c#p# and make sure there aren't duplicates.
ie
$(
"#C0"
).val() + "-" +
$(
"#P0"
).val() is unique
so
$(
"#C3"
).val() + "-" +
$(
"#P3"
).val() doesnt have the same value
I was thinking I could itterate through the table and concatenate
the strings
47-2694;64-2697...etc and then just check each value for a match as I go and if so alert the user and not submit the page until they have changed the selections to be unique
