jQuery to serialize only elements within a div

Question

I would like to get the same effect as jQuery.serialize() but I would like to return only the child elments of a given div.

Sample

Answer 1

You can improve the speed of your code if you restrict the items jQuery will look at.

Use the selector :input instead of * to achieve it.

$('#divId :input').serialize()

This will make your code faster because the list of items is shorter.
