How to select all textareas and textboxes using jQuery?



How can I select all textboxes and textareas, e.g:







<input type='text' />







and







<textarea></textarea>







on a page and have the property style.width="90%"; applied to them?

  1. $('input[type=text], textarea').css({width: '90%'});


    That uses standard CSS selectors, jQuery also has a set of pseudo-selector filters for various form elements, for example:

    $(':text').css({width: '90%'});


    will match all <input type="text"> elements. See Selectors documentation for more info.

  2. Password boxes are also textboxes, so if you need them too:

    $("input[type='text'], textarea, input[type='password']").css({width: "90%"});


    and while file-input is a bit different, you may want to include them too (eg. for visual consistency):

    $("input[type='text'], textarea, input[type='password'], input[type='file']").css({width: "90%"});

  3. $("**:**input[type=text], :input[type='textarea']").css({width: '90%'});

Slow Android emulator

I have a 2.67 GHz Celeron processor, 1.21 GB of RAM on a x86 Windows XP Professional machine. My understanding is that the Android emulator should start fairly quickly on such a machine, but for me it does not. I have followed all instructions in setting up the IDE, SDKs, JDKs and such and have had some success in staring the emulator quickly but is very particulary. How can I, if possible, fix this problem?
