title: Consolidating jQuery functions with multiple named selectors
body: <p>I'm looking for a techniuqe similar to a switch function in PHP so I can use a single function for multiple named selectors. Additional code would be added based on which selector calls the function.</p>
  
  <p>My example is a 'Save' button along a 'Save And Close' button where the latter has additional code to close an accordion.</p>
  
  <p>If the 'Save' button is clicked it calls this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>    $('form[name=experienceForm]').submit(function(eve) {
  
              eve.preventDefault();
              tinyMCE.triggerSave();
  
              var FormData = $(this).serialize();
              var requestThis = $(this);
              var inputCom = $(this).find('input[name=inputCom]').val();
              var inputTitle = $(this).find('input[name=inputTitle]').val();
  
                  $.ajax({
                          type : 'POST',
                          url : '&lt;?php echo site_url('resume/update'); ?&gt;',
                          data: FormData,
                          dataType: "html",
                          context : $(this),
                          success : function(msg){
                          requestThis.closest('.item').children('h3').children('a').text(inputCom+' : '+inputTitle);
  
                          if(msg != '') {
  
                          showNotice(msg);
                          }
  
                          },
  
                          error: function(msg){
                          alert('FAIL '+msg);
                          }
                      }); 
  
  
      });
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I would like the 'Save and Close' button to do the same as above with this added:</p>
  
  <pre><code>    $('input[name=experienceClose]').click(function(eve) {
  
          eve.preventDefault();
          tinyMCE.triggerSave();          
          $(this).parent().parent().parent().parent().parent().parent().parent().parent().parent().accordion({active:"false"});
      }); 
  </code></pre>
