Make sure that $("input.sectionAction", $(el)) is actually returning an element. The code for .val() assumes there is an element in the jQuery object and will generate an error similar to the one you describe if there is no element selected. The W3C says "attribute name required for all but submit and reset" so technically that is not valid HTML. http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/interact/forms.html#h-17.4 However, since one of their own examples shows an INPUT without a NAME but with an ID, they must accept ID as an equal: http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/interact/forms.html#h-17.1 Try adding a NAME and see if that helps. Remember that NAMEs do not need to be unique so you can use the same name depending on whether that works for your markup.
