I'm trying to select the id's of dynamic input fields in my code. When clicking a button, the form will create a form field like this:
<td><input type="text" id="field_a_1"></td>
<td><input type="text" id="field_b_1"></td>
<td><input type="text" id="field_c_1"></td>
When I click on the button again I get this:
<td><input type="text" id="field_a_2"></td>
<td><input type="text" id="field_b_2"></td>
<td><input type="text" id="field_c_2"></td>
What I want to do is select only the field id that I need to pull the value from that particular input and pass it to a variable like this:
var example = $(":input:eq(0)").val();
I know that by adding the :eq(0) after the :input selector it will only grab the id for field_a_1, so how do I set it up so that I can pull just the field that I need to assign it to a variable?
