jQuery loop through input and select fields

Question

I want to loop through all my input elements and select elements in one loop but this doesn't work.

$('#blockProperties :input :select').each(function () {
    // do something
});

When I only loop through one of the two it does work.

Answer 1

The selector should be:

'#blockProperties :input, #blockProperties select'

What you have is looking for a select inside an input.

Answer 2

The manual says :input "selects all input, textarea, select and button elements." So just do:

$('#blockProperties :input').each(function () {
    ...
