Get checkbox list values with jQuery

Question

In a div, I have some checkbox. I\'d like when I push a button get all the name of all check box checked. Could you tell me how to do this ?

Answer 1

$(document).ready(function() {
    $('#someButton').click(function() {
        var names = [];
        $('#MyDiv input:checked').each(function() {
            names.push(this.name);
        });
        // now names contains all of the names of checked checkboxes
        // do something with it
    });
});
