.not() is really greedy, if filters out /everything/ that you specify,
so when you say:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]@name=checkbox]
You're saying:
- Anything that's not an input element
- AND anything that's type property isn't checkbox
- AND anything that's name isn't checkbox
It's the first one that's goofing you up, in the end you can probably
just reduce it to:
.not("[EMAIL PROTECTED]")
Hope this helps!
