I think this will do it for you, although haven't tested:
$(#myInput).parentNode;

I know I can use parents to get the ancestors of my input, but this
will get all forms on the page
$(#myInput).parents("form");
How do I find the one the form is in?
var formItsIn = checkAncestors(theSearchBox, "form");
function checkAncestors(theItem, requiredAncestor){
var theparent = theItem.parentNode.nodeName.toLower();
if(theparent == requiredAncestor){
return theparent;
}else{
checkAncestors(theparent, requiredAncestor);
}
}
my code above seems a bit much to me, and it's not jquery!
Cheers,
Dan.
