I created it because of a simple thing that i made, and i didn't like the
first solution i came with.I had a div with some inputs inside of it and i
had to extract the information of the inputs and generate a string, like
'valueiput1 -- valueinput2 --valueinput3' to insert it as the label of an
option, the value of the options was inside the div too.
So i had to go selecting what i wanted get the values and generate the
string.
With the plugin, as i know the structure of the div, i can create if on a
hidden div using the {key} value where i wantto capture the values and
compare this template with the div i have the values to generate an object
with all the values i need to create my string and my option value.
Did you guys understand?
Thanks for the interest.
