I am surprised you have been so quick with your criticisms when it is 
now clear that you did not immediately understand the code which BootNic 
helpfully substituted for some of yours.  I did wonder why you asked:
"I have no idea what you are talking about.
What selectors do you mean? 
I did not use any <input>."  and
"No, you did make it impossible to understand youe entry."

I guess like many busy people you process these posts by reading very 
quickly, and simply missed the significance of BootNic's post.  This is 
uncharacteristic of you - I have come to recognise your name as the 
source of high quality guidance here.  We all make mistakes, and I hope 
you will ascribe my 'quoting' error (which I still struggle fully to 
grasp) to a similar need to be quick.  As quoting and attribution 
evidently matter to you, I will take special care if I find myself 
responding to a thread in which your name appears - and may simply avoid 
trimming quoted posts to be on the safe side.  I expect someone else 
will scold me for that.

English people often find Dutch people rude, until they come to value 
the honesty and brevity that the familiar bluntness represents.  
Civilised English people tend to go out of their way to avoid any hint 
of personal criticism in any sort of discourse, and the resulting 
circumlocutions must be exasperating for non-native English speakers, 
however fluent.  So let me go Dutch for a moment:  if you now revisit my 
follow-up to BootNic's post I would expect you to see that your 
criticisms are unfounded - excepting possibly my unattributed 
furtherence of your code.  But be assured that I do not take offence, 
and my regard for your expertise and helpfulness is undiminished.
