Javascript code challenge issue :(

QUESTION 2:

Create a method called 'requiredValues' that returns an array of all the values of inputs with the class of 'required'.

I need help with Task 2 ... can't get it to work.

My Code:

var $required = $(".required");
function requiredValues(){
   var blanks = new Array();
  $required.each(function(){
     blanks.push($(this).val() == "");
  });
    return blanks.indexOf(true);
}

I had the same problem until I realized that the challenge is asking you to return an array of all the values, not just the blank ones. If you take out the == "" from line 4 so that every value is being pushed and then return the array in line 7, it should work.
