[jQuery] .each()

[iceangel89]

i used .each to select all elements with id that starts with laLab

$("*[id^=laLab]").each(function (i, obj) {
   alert(obj.attr("value"));
});

but i cant do obj.attr("value") nor obj.val(). why is this so? when i
alert(obj) its said i got HTML Input Element which is right
