Selects all elements of type submit.
The :submit
selector typically applies to button or input elements. Note that some browsers treat <button>
element as type="submit"
implicitly while others (such as Internet Explorer) do not. To ensure that markup works consistently across all browsers and guarantee that it is possible to consistently select buttons that will submit a form, always specify a type
property.
- Because
:submit
is a jQuery extension and not part of the CSS specification, queries using:submit
cannot take advantage of the performance boost provided by the native DOMquerySelectorAll()
method. For better performance in modern browsers, useinput[type="submit"], button[type="submit"]
instead.
jQuery( ":submit" )
version added: 1.0
Examples:
Finds all submit elements that are descendants of a td element.
