javascript - How to select all textareas and textboxes using jQuery?

Question

How can I select all textboxes and textareas, e.g:

<input type='text' />

and

<textarea></textarea>

on a page and have the property style.width="90%"; applied to them?

Answer 1

$('input[type=text], textarea').css({width: '90%'});

That uses standard CSS selectors, jQuery also has a set of pseudo-selector filters for various form elements, for example:

$(':text').css({width: '90%'});

will match all <input type="text"> elements. See Selectors documentation for more info.
