I have an array of text inputs like this:

<input type="textbox" name="col[]">
<input type="textbox" name="col[]">
<input type="textbox" name="col[]">

They are generated at run time using an "add" button.

I can fetch textbox array values using

$('input[name="col[]"]').each(function(){
  alert($(this).val());
});

But if I just need 2nd textbox value then will I fetch it directly without looping through array using jquery?

I appreciate someones help.

Use .eq() to select it:

var $textboxes = $('input[name="col[]"]')

var value1 = $textboxes.eq(0).val();
var value2 = $textboxes.eq(1).val();
