How to use JQuery selector for select input name and input name in array?

Question

can you help me. I need select with JQuery input with name and input with name in array.

<input type="text" name="name">
<input type="text" name="shippingAddress[name]">

I try this, but this not work.

var name = $('[name^="name"]');

Is shippingAddress[name] supposed to be the value of the name attribute or its own attribute? — Anthony Grist

You could use the attribute-contains selector:

var name = $('[name*="name"]');

That will select any element where its name attributes value contains the substring "name", so will match both <input type="text" name="name"/> and <input type="text" name="shippingAddress[name]"/>.

To select input with name:

$('input[name=name]')

To select input with name as array field:

$('input[name="' + shippingAddress + '[]"]')
