Well, while I'd still like to know if this selector was added to the API, I did find a solution to my problem.

$("input:text,input:hidden,select,textarea")

Where is this sort of thing documented? I mean, all the API says (unless I'm missing it somewhere) is that you can do $("input") to get all input elements. It mentions nothing about being able to string them together in a comma delimited list like this.

This is the sort of thing that would be nice to know, not to have to dig too much to find it... just my .02 I guess. :o)

Cheers,
Chris

What every happened to this :input selector. It sounded like John put it in
the core, but I can't seem to figure out how to use it. I need to select all
inputs of type text and hidden, as well as all selects and textareas.

Can anyone give me a quick hand with this?

Thanks,
Chris

Hi,

I'd like to have a selector ":input" that selects all input elements of
type text, checkbox, radio and file and all textareas. The jQuery.g object looks like it could be extended to provide this selector, unfortnately I have no idea how to do it.
My approach looks like this:
$.g.[":"].input = "...";
The jQuery.g object is used inside jQuery.filter, which is used by jQuery.select. Both methods are quite complex and undocumeted, I have no idea what is going on in there, therefore I could need some help writing that custom grammar...

P.S.: Think of dem pupps!
