[jQuery] Find nested elements within a div

[jQuery] Find nested elements within a div


I am trying to get all of the check box elements within a div
element. Some are also inside a span element within the div. When I
do $("#checkGroup/input[@type=checkbox]"), I get the first 5
checkboxes but the remaining 4, the ones within the span, aren't
included. How can I select all of the check boxes regardless if they
are in a span or not?
Here is my html code:
<div id="checkGroup">
<input type="checkbox" name="chk1" /> Option 1<br />
<input type="checkbox" name="chk2" /> Option 2<br />
<input type="checkbox" name="chk3" /> Option 3<br />
<input type="checkbox" name="chk4" /> Option 4<br />
<input type="checkbox" name="chk5" /> Option 5
<span id="subGroup" style="margin-left: 40px;display: block;">
<input type="checkbox" name="chk6"/> Option 6<br />
<input type="checkbox" name="chk7"/> Option 7<br />
<input type="checkbox" name="chk8"/> Option 8<br />
<input type="checkbox" name="chk9"/> Option 9
</span>
</div>
Any suggestions?
thanks,
Jeff
