Select attribute values into a list

I have the following xml:

<ListOfItems>
   <item myval='123' />
   <item myval='342' />

   <item myval='444' />
</ListOfItems>

I'm parsing/traversing it with jQuery. What is a selector that would give me a list of all values in the attribute 'myval' of 'item' nodes. I'm looking for something that would give me back a list of values only. Maybe an array [ '123, '342', '233', '444' ]

Bearing in mind that I don't think those are valid elements, I'd suggest:

var listOfValues = [];

$('ListOfItems > item').each(
    function(){
        listOfValues.push($(this).attr('myval'));
    });

Given the desire to use a single selector, the following is possible:

var myvals = $('li').map(
    function(){
        return this.getAttribute('myval');
    }).get().join(', ');

You would need to iterate through the list of items. For example:

var itemsArray = [];
$("ListOfItems").each(function(index) {
    itemsArray[index] = $(this).attr('myval');
});

Make use of the .map() function.

var listOfItems = $('ListOfItems items').map(function() {
    return $(this).attr('myval');
});

It's a really nifty function (along with $.map()) that a lot of people miss out on.

Just keep in mind that that returns a jQuery object, so if you want to get your hands on the raw returned array, you'll have to get to it via listOfItems.get().

var data = new Array();
$(xml).find('item').each(function() {
   data.push($(this).attr('myval'));
});

where xml is your xml content.

or:

var array = $(xml).find('item').map(function() {
       return $(this).attr('myval');
    }).get();
