Check Box Counts

in Using jQuery • 12 years ago

I know this topic has been discussed before, but I didn't find the precise problem I'm having.

I'm trying to count the number of checked check boxes with a class of "selected-track" in a form named "giveLocaForm". The statement below, though, always returns zero. Can anyone tell why?

$("form[name=giveLocaForm] :checkbox:checked.selected-track").size()

I tested your code using a simple test and it works fine...

DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">

<head>

$(function () {

alert($("form[name=giveLocaForm] :checkbox:checked.selected-track").size());

});

</script>

</head>

<body>

</form>

</body>

</html>

Looks like it's something else in your code.

I finally discovered the cause. The <form> was directly under a <table> element. When I reversed the order of the tags (the <table> was inside the <form>), it magically started to work.
