how to create a ul and li and then test the variable?
how to create a ul and li and then test the variable? Not working...
var variable = 0;
$("<ul id='set'><li> + variable + </li></ul>");
alert("check li variable value: " + $("#set li").val()); or alert("check li variable value: " + $("#set li").text());
Not working, returning undefined when using val()
and empty when using .text()
var variable = 0;
$("<ul id='set'><li> + variable + </li></ul>");
alert("check li variable value: " + $("#set li").val()); or alert("check li variable value: " + $("#set li").text());

$("<ul id='set'><li>" + variable + "</li></ul>");
there's only one li
so there's no li before

Thanks for letting me know this but I have the ul list in an each loop. Is this syntax correct,
alert("check li variable value: " + $("#set li").val());
alert("check li variable value: " + $("#set li").val());
no, that's why I replace your previous code with html()
val() is for value
val() is for value

This is not working.
alert("check li variable value: " + $("#set li").prev().html());
But each time through the each loop, this value increments..
alert("check the total loop count of set list: " + $("#set li").length);
This means to me #set list contains values.
alert("check li variable value: " + $("#set li").prev().html());

Each time through the each loop, the html() says null,
alert("check li variable value: " + $("#set li").prev().html());
alert("check li variable value: " + $("#set li").prev().html());
