find element based on tabindex

Question

Using jquery or javascript, how can I find the input element in the DOM that has a particular tabindex set to it, eg.

<input id="txtInput" type="text" maxlength="5" tabindex="7">

I would want this element returned if I was searching for the element with tabindex = 7.

Answer 1

You can get it with the following jQuery

$('input[tabindex=7]')

Answer 2

You can find the element by an attribute selector:

$('[tabindex=7]')

Answer 3

With the attribute selector:

$("[tabindex=7]") // all elements with tabindex=7
