jQuery serializeArray() key value pairs

Question

I'm having a bit of trouble serializing a form

<form>     <input type="text" name="name1" value="value1"/>     <input type="text" name="name2" value="value2"/> </form>  $(form).serializeArray() 

Will return [{name:"name1",value:"value1"},{name:"name2",value:"value2"}] pairs.

Is it possible to get output in the form

{name1:value1,name2:value2} 

So that they are easier to handle?

Answer 1

var result = { }; $.each($('form').serializeArray(), function() {     result[this.name] = this.value; });  // at this stage the result object will look as expected so you could use it alert('name1 = ' + result.name1 + ', name2 = ' + result.name2);
