How to select a input with name and value

Question

I need to select a radio input with name and value in jquery

In this example how you select element with name SiblingSex and value female

<form action="">
<input type="radio"  name="SiblingSex" value="male">Male<br>
<input type="radio"  name="SiblingSex" value="female">Female


<input type="radio"  name="ParentSex" value="male">Male<br>
<input type="radio"  name="ParentSex" value="female">Female

</form>

i need some thing like

$('input[name="SiblingSex"]' /*GENDER SELECTOR */)

Doing such a thing doesn't make any sense! you're getting value with val() Why do you need it as a selector? — Dhaval Marthak

@DhavalMarthak it seems to me OP just want to have female value of SiblingSex not from female from ParentSex. — Jai

@Jai If it is then only the name selector is enough! isn't it? — Dhaval Marthak

You can add another attribute selector with this:

$('input[name="SiblingSex"][value="female"]').val();

the above line would give you values every time whether it is checked or not.

so if you only want to have the value when it is checked too then add :checked

$('input[name="SiblingSex"][value="female"]:checked').val();

Just have a look on the Demo on my JS Fiddle Code

Shows the two scenario:

1) when you want the value without selecting radio button.


2) when you want value after selecting radio button.

or may be the thing that you want is here::
