Jquery code challenge checking-values

Ok I'm stumped on this one!

When I check my work if fails :(

There is something wrong with your code in your 'requiredValues' function.

function isValidEmail(email) { return email.indexOf("@") != -1; } var $required = $(".required"); function requiredValues() { var reqVals = new Array(); $required.each(function(){ reqVals.push($(this).val() == ""); }); return reqVals; }

Elliott, can you provide a link to the Code Challenge this relates to, and where possible, post your code into something like http://codepen.io/ so we can see the bigger picture.

Many thanks :-)

requiredValues() should only return the values not if they equal blank or not. So removing == "" should do the trick.

I don't have =="" and my code still fails.

function isValidEmail(email) {
  return email.indexOf("@") != -1; 
};

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

return reqval;}

is in the each loop. Put it after the ); and before };
