.toArray()

Retrieve all the elements contained in the jQuery set, as an array.

.toArray() returns all of the elements in the jQuery set:

1	`alert( $(` `"li"` `).toArray() );`

All of the matched DOM nodes are returned by this call, contained in a standard array:

[<li id="foo">, <li id="bar">]

.toArray()

version added: 1.4

This method does not accept any arguments.

Examples:

Select all divs in the document and return the DOM Elements as an Array; then use the built-in reverse() method to reverse that array.

<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8">
  <title>toArray demo</title>
  <style>
  span {
    color: red;
  }
  </style>
  <script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
  
Reversed - <span></span>
  
<div>One</div>
<div>Two</div>
<div>Three</div>
  
<script>
function disp( divs ) {
  var a = [];
  for ( var i = 0; i < divs.length; i++ ) {
    a.push( divs[ i ].innerHTML );
  }
  $( "span" ).text( a.join( " " ) );
}
  
disp( $( "div" ).toArray().reverse() );
</script>
  
</body>
</html>
