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!
