How to know if it is select / textbox / radio / checkbox?

Question

I have this code:

parent.find('input, select, textarea').each(function () {
        console.log($(this));           
});

I want to know if $(this) is text / checkbox / radio / select / textarea

How can I achieve that?

Any help is appreciated

Check `this.tagName`. If it's `INPUT`, check the `type` attribute. — joews, Apr 15 '15 at 08:51
Like this `$('.parent input[type=checkbox], .parent input[type=select]')` — Maxim Zhukov, Apr 15 '15 at 08:53
try `.prop('tagName')` parent.find('input, select, textarea').each(function () { console.log($(this).prop('tagName')); }); — ozil, Apr 15 '15 at 08:53

Have you tried is?

parent.find('input, select, textarea').each(function () {
        if($(this).is('input')){
          console.log('Input it is');           
        } 
        ...            
});
