如何使用JQuery检索无序列表的li标签并将这些标签放入数组中？

Question

I am pretty new in JQuery and I have the following problem.

Into a page I have the following unordered list :

<ul id="menu-language" class="nav">
    <li id="menu-item-422" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-422">
        <a href="http://localhost/onyx/prova/">prova cat</a>
    </li>

    <li id="menu-item-185" class="qtranxs-lang-menu qtranxs-lang-menu-it menu-item menu-item-type-custom menu-item-object-custom menu-item-has-children menu-item-185">
        ..............................
        SOMETHING
        ..............................
    </li>
</ul>

I need to create a JQuery script that retrieve all the li tag (and the related HTML content of these tags) and that put it into something like an array (so each position of this array have to contain a li tag and its HTML content).

What is the smarter way to do it using JQuery?

Tnx

$('#menu-language > li') will return an array of li nodes, you can get the content of each li element by iterating:

$('#menu-language > li').each(function() {
console.log($(this).html());
});
