What would be the way best to convert form elements to an JavaScript Element?

I would like some automatic way to build JavaScript objects, without having to loop each element. I do not want any strings returned like in var formData = f.serialize();.

My HTML

<script type="text/javascript">
$(function() {
    $("#sendrfr").click(function() {

        var f = $("#Commtnx");
        var formData = f.serialize();

        alert(formData);
    });
}); 
</script> 

 <div id="outter">
      <form id="Commtnx" action="/Home/Test1" method="post" name="down">
        <div id="inner">
            <input id="input1" type="text" value="2" />
        </div>    
      </form>
  </div>

 <input type="submit" id="sendrfr" />

Welcome to SO. Please visit the help center to see how and what to ask. Your question as it is now is off topic. You need to show effort and code. You do not show enough input and expected output. Please create a Minimal, Complete, and Verifiable example using the <> snippet editor – mplungjan Oct 12 at 7:42
    
if your form contains only input elements then you can do var data = $('#formID input'); This will give you array of elemets, Similarly you can add select, textarea too into the selector. – Reddy Oct 12 at 7:42

serializeArray() does just that.

 $('form').on('submit',function(e){
    e.preventDefault();
    var output = $(this).serializeArray();
    console.log(output);
 });

Use .serializeArray() to serialize <form> elements to an array of objects.
