Actually i have a form where i enter name ,html page name in a input box and save it to the database. Here i got some issues

1. i am able generate input box but how to get the value of that input box ?

2. how to get the dynamic values of the input box which was entered in dynamic boxes and send it to post request as i know how to send a static input box value request for multiple how can we send it .

here is what below is my code

    <div class="input_fields_wrap">
    <button class="add_field_button">Add More Fields</button>
    <div><input type="text" name="mytext[]"></div>
</div>



 $(document).ready(function() {
    var max_fields      = 10; //maximum input boxes allowed
    var wrapper         = $(".input_fields_wrap"); //Fields wrapper
    var add_button      = $(".add_field_button"); //Add button ID

    var x = 1; //initlal text box count
    $(add_button).click(function(e){ //on add input button click
        e.preventDefault();
        if(x < max_fields){ //max input box allowed
            x++; //text box increment
            $(wrapper).append('<div><input type="text" name="mytext[]"/><a href="#" class="remove_field">Remove</a></div>'); //add input box
        }
    });

    $(wrapper).on("click",".remove_field", function(e){ //user click on remove text
        e.preventDefault(); $(this).parent('div').remove(); x--;
    })
});

i thins above i can generate dynamic input box and can remove it but unable to get values so how can generate by using id and post all dynamically generated values to the database

• can you show us how you are trying to get the values? Hard to say what's wrong if you don't show us... – Salketer Commented Sep 1, 2017 at 13:21

You can use the jquery #map() function like this:

var list = wrapper.find('input').map(function() {
  return $(this).val();
}).get();

when you want to submit the list of values to the send to the server - see demo below:

$(document).ready(function() {
  var max_fields = 10; //maximum input boxes allowed
  var wrapper = $(".input_fields_wrap"); //Fields wrapper
  var add_button = $(".add_field_button"); //Add button ID

  var x = 1; //initlal text box count
  $(add_button).click(function(e) { //on add input button click
    e.preventDefault();
    if (x < max_fields) { //max input box allowed
      x++; //text box increment
      $(wrapper).append('<div><input type="text" name="mytext[]"/><a href="#" class="remove_field">Remove</a></div>'); //add input box
    }
  });

  $(wrapper).on("click", ".remove_field", function(e) { //user click on remove text
    e.preventDefault();
    $(this).parent('div').remove();
    x--;
  });

  /* ADDED THIS */
  $('.submit').click(function() {
    var list = wrapper.find('input').map(function() {
      return $(this).val();
    }).get();
    // send to server here
    console.log(list);
  });
});

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis./ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div class="input_fields_wrap">
  <button class="add_field_button">Add More Fields</button>
  <div><input type="text" name="mytext[]"></div>
</div>
<button class="submit">Submit</button>

Yea can try something like this

var inputField = $('<div><input type="text" name="mytext[]"/><a href="#" class="remove_field">Remove</a></div>');
$(wrapper).append(inputField);

Then you can attach an event to that variable.

inputField.on('change', 'input', function() {
    var value = $(this).val();
    console.log(value);
});

Hope this helps you :)

Another way, add the following button the form:

<button class="getValue">Get Field Values</button>

Add the below button click event in JS on load:

$(getValue).click(function (e) {
   e.preventDefault();
   let fieldValues = "";
   $("input").each(function(i,e){
     fieldValues = fieldValues == "" ? $(e).val() : fieldValues + ", " + $(e).val();
   })
   alert(fieldValues);
});
