I have this snipped in my page:

$('#category_sorting_form_save').click(function(){

    var elements = $(#category_sorting_elements > div);

    $.each(elements, function(key, value) {

        console.info(key, : ,value);

        console.info(cat_id: ,value.attr('cat_id'));

    });

});

And when it is executed, I get:

0 : <div class=dragable cat_id=6 value= style=opacity: 1;>    

value.attr is not a function

    console.info(cat_id: ,value.attr('cat_id'));

What am I doing wrong here? I am trying to get the value of the div.cat_id element.

Contents of that jQuery object are plain DOM elements, which doesn't respond to jQuery methods (e.g. .attr). You need to wrap the value by $() to turn it into a jQuery object to use it.

    console.info(cat_id: , $(value).attr('cat_id'));

or just use the DOM method directly

    console.info(cat_id: , value.getAttribute('cat_id'));
