Hi,
The following code is alerting an empty string for me. Any ideas on
what could be causing it?
Thanks,
Jonah
-----------------------------------
<form id="testform">
<input type="text" value="3" size="2">
</form>
<script>
alert($(''testform'').serialize());
</script>

The serialize method creates a string in the name=value format, so you must give the input a name: <input name="myname" type="text" value="3" size="2" /> It''ll alert ''myname=3'' then.
