How to make jquery.dynamiclist run with newer version of jquery?

Question

I would like to use jquery.dynamiclist library in my procject. In the demo page that's running smoothly there is a jquery library in version 1.8.2. In my project I use version 1.11.1 and this makes dynamiclist plugin doesn't work. With newer version when I process form I get data with names of inputs but without values (I get 'undefined').

Here is the code from demo. What I have to change to make it run with newer version of jquery?

    <form class="form-horizontal">
            <h2>Example 1: Basic List</h2>
            <div class="control-group">
                <label class="control-label">Party</label>
                <div class="controls">
                    <input name="partyName" type="text" placeholder="Party Name">
                </div>
            </div>
            <div class="control-group">
                <label class="control-label">Guest List</label>
                <div id="example1" class="controls">
                    <div class="list-item">
                        <input name="guestList[0].name" type="text" placeholder="Guest Name">
                        <a href="#" class="list-remove btn btn-small"><i class="icon-minus"></i> Remove Guest</a>
                    </div>
                    <a href="#" class="list-add btn btn-small"><i class="icon-plus"></i> Add Guest</a>
                </div>
            </div>
            <div class="control-group">
                <div class="controls">
                    <input type="submit" class="btn btn-primary btn-large" value="Process Example 1"/>
                </div>
            </div>
        </form>

                    // display form submit data
                    $("form").submit(function(event) {
                        event.preventDefault();
                        var data = "";
                        $(this).find("input, select").each(function() {
                            var element = $(this);
                            if (element.attr("type") != "submit") {
                                data += element.attr("name");
                                data += "="
                                data += element.attr("value");
                                data += "; "
                            }
                        });
                        alert(data);
                        location.reload(true);
                    });
                });
            })(jQuery);
        </script>

Answer 1

Simply change element.attr("value"); to element.val(); .

Sorry I had to include the plugin code manually because apparently you cannot include the src directly from github. Also commented the reload for the snippet.
