How do I get html tag value (div) in javascript

Question

I have implemented this function (libphonenumber javascript )in a website http://www.phoneformat.com/

How do i get the value returned by this html tag. Whether Yes

Answer 1

The .val() method is primarily used to get the values of form elements such as input, select and textarea.

Use

$("#phone_valid").text();

to get DIV text content or

$("#phone_valid").html();

if you want markup.
