i m doing paginnation meanwhile i want to select all element of a particular coloumn,but i m getting only those value which are currently available on page...here is my code plz help me out...

Question

var vals = new Array();
var i=0;
var options='';
jQuery('#SearchResultsTable123 tr:gt(0)  td:nth-child(2)').each(function(){
   var t=jQuery(this).html();
   if(jQuery.inArray(t, vals) < 0)
   {
      vals[i]=t;
      i++;
   }
}); 

for(var j=0;j<i;j++)
{
   options +=     vals[j] +':' ;
}
alert(options);

This code gives me the distinct value of that column but only for visible page.

Answer 1

By visible do you mean retrieved data or all the table data is already in the page but some are invisible?

If you data is not all in the html you have to do this with your server side technology or ajax. or else you have to append all your data at first so you can get the column value for everything
