Count elements with jQuery

Is there a way to co开发者_JAVA技巧unt how many elements on the page with a particular class?

$('.someclass').length

You could also use:

$('.someclass').size()

which is functionally equivalent, but the former is preferred. In fact, the latter is now deprecated and shouldn't be used in any new development.

var count_elements = $('.class').length;

From: http://api.jquery.com/size/

The .size() method is functionally equivalent to the .length property; however, the .length property is preferred because it does not have the overhead of a function call.

Please see:

http://api.jquery.com/size/

http://api.jquery.com/length/

Yes, there is.

$('.MyClass').size()

I believe this works:

$(".MyClass").length 

try this:

var count_element = $('.element').length

$('.class').length

This one does not work for me. I'd rather use this:

$('.class').children().length

I don't really know the reason why, but the second one works only for me. Somewhy, either size doesn't work.

The best way would be to use .each()

var num = 0;

$('.className').each(function(){
    num++;
});

use the .size() method or .length attribute
