how do I check dynamically generated radio input value

I have to generate multiple input fields dynamically for each time user clicks "add" button and I was successfully able to get them. Each contact should have this radio input field in different different name so I've created a name in an array form.
Here's what I have so far and I wonder how I'm supposed to get the radio value for each person:
var options = '';
var count = 0;
var maxfields = 4;
$('button#add').click(function() {
options = '<p>Visit Type:
<label class="radio-inline">
<input type="radio" class="c_visittype' + count +'" name="c_visittype[]" value="Student" required>Student</label>
<label class="radio-inline">
<input type="radio" class="c_visittype' + count +'" name="c_visittype[]" value="Visitor" required>Visitor</label> </p>';
if(count < maxfields){
count++;
$(options).fadeIn("slow").appendTo('.companion');
return false;
}
});
$('.c_visittype' + count).on('click', function(){
$('input:radio[name="c_visittype"]').attr('checked', 'checked');
});
Each person should get a choice of either 'student' or 'visitor' and I have to get this value for multiple persons whenever more person fields created.The reason why I put field's name as an array is to iterate it in the next page by php.

$('input[name=c_visittype[]]:checked').val();
That's how you access the value of a checked radio button with jQuery.

var inputValues = [];
$('.c_visittype:checked').each(function() {
inputValues.push($(this).val());
});
// Your code using inputValues
For update on changes:
$(function() {
$('.c_visittype').click(function(){
// Insert code here
}
)});
Make sure to move the numbering from the class attribute to the name attribute (like it was, everything was part of the same set of options). Also, put the whole string on 1 line.

Select at least 1 checkbox in a loop of checkboxes group

I'm trying to get this thing work for a while but I guess I need to tweak the code from somewhere. I thought, someone here could better guide me instead of banging my head to my coding screen :)
here's the actual process:
<input type="hidden" name='oneSelectionChk_1'>
<input type="checkbox" name='awp_group_1' id='id1'>
<input type="checkbox" name='awp_group_1' id='id2'>
<input type="checkbox" name='awp_group_1' id='id3'>
<input type="checkbox" name='awp_group_1' id='id4'>
<input type="hidden" name='oneSelectionChk_2'>
<input type="checkbox" name='awp_group_2' id='id5'>
<input type="checkbox" name='awp_group_2' id='id6'>
<input type="checkbox" name='awp_group_2' id='id7'>
<input type="checkbox" name='awp_group_2' id='id8'>
<input type="hidden" name='oneSelectionChk_3'>
<input type="checkbox" name='awp_group_3' id='id9'>
<input type="checkbox" name='awp_group_3' id='id10'>
<input type="checkbox" name='awp_group_3' id='id11'>
<input type="checkbox" name='awp_group_3' id='id12'>
what I'm using for jQuery is:
var chkFields = $("input[name='oneSelectionChk']");
$.each(chkFields, function(i, field){
var groupID = field.id.split('_'); // Getting the ID of the group
var chkGroupBoxes = $('input[name="awp_group_"'+groupID[1]);
if(field.value==1)
{
//$.each(chkGroupBoxes, function(j, thisChkBox){
//alert(thisChkBox.value + " #"+j);
alert( $('input[name="awp_group_"'+groupID[1]).filter(':checked').length);
if($('input[name="awp_group_"'+groupID[1]+':checked').length > 0 )
{
//$.scrollTo( '#awp_container', 1200 );
alert($('input[name="awp_group_"'+groupID[1]+':checked').length+" Selected ");
//alert( "Class AlertMsgText Should be removed Now");
$("#selectInstruction_"+groupID[1]).removeClass("AlertMsgText");
//return
}
else
{
alert($('input[name="awp_group_"'+groupID[1]+':checked').length+" Still not selected ");
//alert("Please select atleat 1 from Option #"+groupID[1]);
$("#selectInstruction_"+groupID[1]).addClass("AlertMsgText");
$.scrollTo( '#awp_container', 1200 );
//return;
}
//});
}
});
This code always giving me 0 length of checkboxes, I'm not sure if I need to loop through again for each checkbox or this might work?
Any quick help should be appreciated!

Try
var chkFields = $('input[name^="oneSelectionChk"]');
$.each(chkFields, function (i, field) {
var groupID = field.name.replace('oneSelectionChk_', '')
var chkGroupBoxes = $('input[name="awp_group_' + groupID + '"]');
if (chkGroupBoxes.filter(':checked').length == 0) {
alert('please select at least one checkbox under: ' + field.name)
}
});
Demo: Fiddle

There is no element with name attribute of oneSelectionChk in your markup, the hidden inputs have name attributes that start with oneSelectionChk, you have to use attribute starts with selector.
In case that elements are siblings you can select the target elements using .nextUntil() method:
var $hidden = $('input[type=hidden]').filter('[name^=oneSelectionChk]');
$hidden.each(function(){
var $chekboxes = $(this).nextUntil('input[type=hidden]'),
$checked = $checkboxes.filter(':checked'),
$unchecked = $chekboxes.not($checked);
});
Using name attributes:
var $hidden = $('input[type=hidden]').filter('[name^=oneSelectionChk]'),
$checkboxes = $('input[type=checkbox]');
$hidden.each(function() {
var n = this.name.split('_')[1];
var $grp = $checkboxes.filter('[name="awp_group_'+ n +'"]');
// ..
});

how to get an attribute from an element with jquery?

here is my example
<fieldset data-role="controlgroup" id="test">
<legend>Radio buttons, vertical controlgroup:</legend>
<input class="status" type="radio" name="radio-choice-1" id="radio-choice-1" value="choice-1" checked="checked">
<label for="radio-choice-1">Cat</label>
<input class="status" type="radio" name="radio-choice-1" id="radio-choice-2" value="choice-2">
<label for="radio-choice-2">Dog</label>
<input class="status" type="radio" name="radio-choice-1" id="radio-choice-3" value="choice-3">
<label for="radio-choice-3">Hamster</label>
<input class="status" type="radio" name="radio-choice-1" id="radio-choice-4" value="choice-4">
<label for="radio-choice-4">Lizard</label>
</fieldset>
$('.status').on("click", function () {
var inputs = $('#test').find('input');
$.each(inputs, function (i, v) {
console.log(v);
});
});
i would like to get the id and val() of all radio buttons, something like:
[{
id: id1,
value: value1
} {
id: id2,
value: value2
}]
...
any ideas?

To get the attribute of an element you can use .attr() like $(el).attr('class').
But to get the desired output in the above case, you can use
$('.status').on("click", function () {
var array = $('#test').find('input').map(function(idx, el){
return {id: el.id, value: el.value}
}).get();
console.log(JSON.stringify(array));
});
Demo: Fiddle

$('.status').on("click", function () {
var radioid = $(this).attr('id'); //gets the attribute ID of the clicked `.status`
radioval = $(this).val(); //gets the value of of the clicked `.status`
alert('ID = ' + radioid + ' and VALUE = ' + radioval); //see the magic
var inputs = $('#test').find('input');
$.each(inputs, function (i, v) {
console.log(v);
});
});
Use jquery attr() to get the attribute ID (and other attributes) and val() to get the value of the radio button

javascript how to add textboxs' values and titles to textarea

I have this html:
<input type="radio" name="r1" value="v1"><input name="asd1" title="text1" id="asd1"><br>
<input type="radio" name="r2" value="v2"><input name="asd2" title="text1" id="asd2"><br>
<input type="button" name="but1">
<textarea rows=6 cols=80 name="conclus" id="idConclus">
</textarea><br><br>
Is there a way on js to fill textarea with titles and values of inputs by selecting some of them and clicking a button?
e.g.: "text1 - value1, text2 - value2" etc.
thanks for material.
mmm... Felix King, in your examples the button updates the form. and if i need to put one testfield 1, then put some text in textarea manually, and then again textfield 2 and so on? i mean, without updating the textarea?

getElementById is your friend :-)
<script>
getValues = new function() {
var myTextArea = document.getElementById('idConclus');
var radio1 = document.getElementById('asd1');
var radio2 = document.getElementById('asd2');
myTextArea.value = radio1.title + ' - ' + radio1.value + ' ,'
+ radio2.title + ' - ' + radio2.value;
}
</script>
<input type="radio" name="r1" value="v1">
<input type="text" name="asd1" title="text1" id="asd1"><br>
<input type="radio" name="r2" value="v2">
<input type="text" name="asd2" title="text1" id="asd2"><br>
<input type="button" name="but1" handler = getValues>

I suggest you read about JavaScript and forms.
Assuming you have this HTML:
<form name="data">
<input name="asd1" title="text1" id="asd1"><br>
<input name="asd2" title="text2" id="asd2"><br>
<input type="button" name="but1" value="update">
<textarea rows=6 cols=80 name="conclus" id="idConclus"></textarea>
</form>
you can do this:
var inputs = ['asd1', 'asd2'];
var form = document.data;
var button = form.but1;
var textarea = form.conclus;
button.addEventListener('click', function() {
var text = Array();
for(var i = 0, length = inputs.length; i < length; i++) {
var input = form[inputs[i]];
text.push(input.title + " - " + input.value);
}
textarea.value = text.join(' ');
}, false);​
See a live example here: http://jsfiddle.net/6kbtH/
Update:
If you want to control which values are put into the textbox, I would use checkboxes, give them the same name and the name of the input as value like so:
<input type="checkbox" name="take" value="asd1"><input name="asd1" title="text1" id="asd1">
<input type="checkbox" name="take" value="asd2"><input name="asd2" title="text2" id="asd2">
Then you can loop with nearly the same code over those values:
var form = document.data;
var inputs = form.take;
var button = form.but1;
var textarea = form.conclus;
button.addEventListener('click', function() {
var text = Array();
for(var i = 0, length = inputs.length; i < length; i++) {
if(inputs[i].checked) {
var input = form[inputs[i].value];
text.push(input.title + " - " + input.value);
}
}
textarea.value = text.join(' ');
}, false);​
Live example: http://jsfiddle.net/sJdqb/
Note: You have to take care of cross-browser issues regarding attaching the event listener yourself if you don't use a JavaScript library. The examples I gave will work in Firefox and WebKit-based browsers.

Undefined value, reading an input

i am geting undefined for ans . why? what is wrong?
function submitAnswer()
{
var myForm = document.getElementById('quiz');
var ansVal = myForm.ans.value;
var qnoVal = myForm.qno.value;
alert ("ans=" + ansVal);
alert ("qno = " +qnoVal);
return;
}
<form nam="quiz" id="quiz" >
Yes:
<input type="radio" id="ans" name="ans" value="1" />
<br />No:
<input type="radio" id="ans" name="ans" value="0" />
<input id="qno" type="text" name="qno " value="qqq" />
<input type="button" value="" onClick="submitAnswer(); " />
</form>

Using theForm.inputElement is not standard and can't be guaranteed to work. Instead, you should use document.getElementById, or some other DOM mechanism, to find the input element you want. theForm.elements[name] also works.
You'll also need to fix your element IDs before you can do that - you have two <input type="radio" /> elements with an ID "ans", which is incorrect. IDs must be unique:
<input type="radio" id="ans1" name="ans" value="1" />
<input type="radio" id="ans2" name="ans" value="0" />
<script type="text/javascript">
var ans1 = document.getElementById('ans1');
var ans1value = ans1.value;
</script>
Or, get the radio button group as a single element using elements:
<script type="text/javascript">
var theForm = document.getElementById('quiz');
var ansValue = theForm.elements['ans'].value;
</script>

You have two elements with the same ID, causing a name conflict. They're also the same as the name attribute on the same element, which could cause some confusion down the road.

Try:
var ansVal = myForm.ans.checked;

This will work:
function submitAnswer() {
var myForm = document.getElementById('quiz');
// Set a default value, in case no radio button is selected
var ansVal = 'default value here';
var qnoVal = myForm.qno.value;
// Loop through radio buttons, getting the value of the
// one that is checked (selected).
var radioButtons = myForm.ans;
for (var i = 0; i < radioButtons.length; i++) {
if (radioButtons[i].checked) {
ansVal = radioButtons[i].value;
}
}
alert ("ans=" + ansVal);
alert ("qno = " +qnoVal);
return;
}

this will work too
function submitAnswer()
{
var myForm = document.getElementById('quiz');
var qnoVal = myForm.qno.value;
var ansVal = 'none';
for( i = 0; i < myForm.ans.length; i++ )
{
if( myForm.ans[i].checked == true )
{
ansVal = myForm.ans[i].value;
break;
}
}
alert ("ans=" + ansVal);
alert ("qno = " +qnoVal);
return;
}

This will work
