JQuery/Datatables
How do you get all of the values from the drop down boxes in a datatable?
ASKER
Hello sedgwick,
I have a jQuery datatable with drop down boxes for route and sub-route for each record in the datatable. The route values are approved or not approved. If approved take sub-route one or two. If route value is not approved take sub-route three or four.
As an example record one could have a route of approved and a sub-route of two and,
record two could have a route of not-approved and sub-route of four.
How do I get(store/retrieve/display
Thanks for your help.

I don’t care about having unique ID on the select boxes in a table, the table is generated using JSP so for all purposes in this example you can remove the id
By selecting input elements in a datatable by ID runs the risk of getting an element from a different row, were a mistake made in the ID assignment, surely there is a more accurate way of getting row input elements.
