You can use a CSS selector. just add ".formrow" to the selector you
already have:
jQuery(this).parents("div.formrow:eq(0)").addClass('highlighted');

Hi,
I have the code below to add a highlight class to the parent div if an
input field gets focus
---------
jQuery(this).parents("div:eq(0)").addClass('highlighted');
----------
<div class="formrow">
<input type="text">
</div>
----------
This works fine, but I would like to further specify the filter
expression in the parents() function to only include divs that have
the attribute class="formrow":
parents("div:eq(0)")
Is this possible?
PS: Sorry, I'm relatively new to jQuery, so if there's a better way to
do this I'd like to hear it!
Thanks in advance,
