Nested jQuery.each () - continue / break

Here is my code:

var steps = $("div#f");
steps.each(function () {
    var s = $(this);
    var cs = $(this).find(".Cm");
    cs.each(function () {
        var tc = $(this);
        var err = tc.attr("h");
        if (err == false) {
            this.c = err;//this.c is a global variable
            return this.c;
            break;//here is where the error is being thrown
        }
        else {
            this.c =  {"Eval": err, "S": s, "Cm": tc};
            return this.c;
        }
    });
});

I use iteration .each()to collect values. I thought this worked like a loop, so I thought id was using an instruction break. This causes an “illegal” error. Does anyone know how to get out of the iteration each?

Answer 1

use return false. Take a look at this resource: http://gavinroy.com/jquery-tip-how-to-break-out-of-each

Answer 2

To exit .each(), just usereturn false;

See jQuery .each()docs for more information.

, :

$("button").click(function() {
    $("div").each(function(index, domEle) {
        // domEle == this
        $(domEle).css("backgroundColor", "yellow");
        if ($(this).is("#stop")) {
            $("span").text("Stopped at div index #" + index);
            return false; //Equivalent to break;
        }
    });
});​

Answer 4

its function, you can just return falseto breakget out of the loop at all, or if you want something that works as an operator continue, you canreturn true

each( function() 
{
   if ( someCondition ) return true; // same as continue;
   if ( someOtherCondition) return false; // same as break;
} );
