Hi hedgomatic,
I just noticed something about your code,
in the highlighted line, I think it should be
elements.push(wordsSelected+',');
instead of
Array.push(wordsSelected+',');
I tried the code like that and it works for me.
Thanks
Qutoz.
$(".button").click(function() {
elements = new Array();
$(".elementSelected").each(function() {
var wordsSelected = $(this).html(); // this is
probably wrong.
Array.push(wordsSelected+',');
$alert(elements); //debug
});
});
