copied!<p>I have this js code </p> <pre><code>elem=$(this); var tester_names=""; tester_names=$("#release_tester_tokens").val(); alert(tester_names) if (elem.attr('checked')==true) **tester_names=tester_names+", "+ elem.attr("title");** alert(elem.attr("title")) alert(tester_names) </code></pre> <p>I want to have tester_names=tester_names+", "+ elem.attr("title"); to have the combination of testers_names (a,b,c,d,e) and elem.attr("title") (f) to become (a,b,c,d,e,f) The alerts that I used is for debugging to see what values are stored in the variable.. They all store correctly, but they don't combine together when I call the bolded function... I just want to know why. I am using formtastic textarea instead of the normal textbox... do I have to adjust to that? Or maybe what the tester_names and elem.attr are outputting are of different type?</p> <p>I tried it using this type of code (this is nearly the same with different variable names</p> <pre><code>function updateTextArea() { var allVals = []; $('.taglist :checked').each(function(i) { allVals.push( $(this).val()); }); $('#video0_tags').val(allVals).attr('rows',allVals.length) ; } $(function() { $('.taglist input').click(updateTextArea); updateTextArea(); }); }); </code></pre> <p>why does this add to checkbox values to the textarea perfectly whenever I check checkboxes when mine just outputs same results before and after using the starred function?</p> <p>(I don't understand why ppl keep voting this down... its seems like a decent question after the first mishap and fix) :S </p>
