I try to get jQuery object of a submit button in a specific form (there are several forms on the same page).
I managed to get the form element itself. It looks something like this:
var curForm = curElement.parents("form");
The current Element has the context HTMLInputElement. The several techniques I tried to get the according submit element of the form:
var curSubmit = curForm.find("input[type='submit']");
var curSubmit = $(curForm).find("input[type='submit']");
var curSubmit = curForm.find(":submit");
var curSubmit = $(curForm).find(":submit");
var curSubmit = $(curSubmit, "input[type='submit']");
the result is always the same (and very strange). The result that I get is the same element as "curElement".
So how can I get the right submit button?
