Assume I have the following HTML -



<DIV id=ParentDiv>
<DIV id=SubDiv1></DIV>
<DIV id=SubDiv2>
<INPUT id=input>
</DIV>
</DIV>


To access the input element using jquery, it would be simply $(#input). What I'm trying to do is access it, assuming I only know the ID of the top level div.



Currently I have



$($($(#ParentDiv).children()[1]).children()[0])


Which does seem to work. Is there a cleaner way of writing this, or is the way I am doing it ok?

You would just perform a .find() implicitly or explicitly:



$('#ParentDiv input');  // implicitly

$('#ParentDiv').find('input'); // explicitly


Reference: .find()
