Hii i want to show the number chars to the closest div with the class `showchars`.

I tried to do this :

```
$('#maina').focus(function() {
$(this).closest("div.showchars").find(".countchars").html("KKK");
    $("#error-1").html("");
    $(this).closest(".showchars").html("hmm");
});

```

With this html:

```
    <tr>
    <td>
    Main Alliase/Current Alliase:
    </td>
    <td><input type="text" id="maina" class="countchars"/><br />
    <div class="showchars">o</div>
    </td>
<td><span id="handle-1" class="selector">?</span></td>
    <td><div id="error-1" class="errors"></div></td>
    </tr>

```

When i focus into the input boxes it does resets the content of the errors class.

But doesnt changes text to : `hmm` in the div.

Where have been i going wrong or what is the better way to get the closest div and then implement the api : `.html("hmm")` ?

Thanks
