First, since all of your functions do the same thing, you do not have
to repeat yourself. I would suggest either wrapping all the buttons
and textboxes in another element or giving them a class so that they
can be selected together, for example:
$('#wrapper input').click(...); or $('.buttonClass').click(...);
Next, you say you want the values in an array, but you're currently
using separate variables (a, b, and c). Would you have the array
predefined or do you want to return an array? Also, if the textboxes
appear in the same order that you want to store the values, you can
use the .each() method with the enumerator for the array index. For
example:
$('.buttonClass').click(function()
{
$('.textboxClass').each(function(i)
{
MyArray[i] = $(this).val();
})
});
Or something like that, depending on where your array is, whether the
elements are in order, whether the number of textboxes is constant,
etc. etc.
