I need to loop through all of these in JQuery and create an array of the names of the ones that are checked. How would I do this?

---

var names = [];
$("checkbox:checked").each(function(){
   names.push($(this).attr("name"));
})

you might want to add a div around the checkboxes you want this done to, so that you dont loop through ALL checkboxes on the screen.

if you did this the selector would change to:

$("#mydiv checkbox:checked")

where mydiv is the id of that div

---

var arr = [];

$('input[type=checkbox]').is(':checked').each(function(){
     arr.push($(this).attr('name'));
});

alert(arr.join('-'));

---

Use the checked selector:

$(':checked').each(function(){
  ...
});

---

It's as simple as

$("input:checked").each(...);

Here is a Live Demo: http://jsfiddle.net/vFmNh/3/

Use filter it's faster.

$('input').filter(function() {return this.checked})
