Jquery Enabled Selector
Jquery Enabled Selector
enabled selector
Description: Selects all elements that are enabled.
As with other pseudo-class selectors (those that begin with a ":") it is recommended to
precede it with a tag name or some other selector; otherwise, the universal selector ( "*" ) is
implied. In other words, the bare $( ":enabled" ) is equivalent to $( "*:enabled" ), so $
( "input:enabled" ) or similar should be used instead.
Although their resulting selections are usually the same, :enabled selector is subtly different
from :not([disabled]); :enabled selects elements that have their boolean disabled
property strictly equal to false, while :not([disabled]) selects elements that do not have a
disabled attribute set (regardless of its value).
The :enabled selector should only be used for selecting HTML elements that support
the disabled attribute (<button>, <input>, <optgroup>, <option>, <select>,
and <textarea>).
Example:
Find all input elements that are enabled.
