JQuery: Turn array input values into a string optimization

rated 0 times [ 22] [ 3] / answers: 1 / hits: 21304 / 15 Years ago, thu, july 23, 2009, 12:00:00

using jQuery I have the following code:

var selectedIdsArray = $(#selectId option:selected).map(function(){return this.value;});

var selectedIdsStr = $.map(selectedIdsArray, function(val){ return  + val + ;});

It successfully retrieves a string of ids eg. selectedIdsStr = 2,45,245,1 from an <select multiple='multiple'> element. I was wondering if there is a more efficient way (less code) to achieve this?

Thanks!

You could change the second line like this:

var selectedIdsStr = selectedIdsArray.get().join(',');
