How to select all the inputs not being descendants of particular elements?
<p>Observe:</p>

<p><img src="http://i.stack.imgur.com/l7gJ5.png" alt="enter image description here"></p>

<p>There are 275 elements on my page, of which 30 are inputs. 12 of the inputs are descendants of <code>tr.items</code> elements and consequently there are 18 inputs, which are not. How can I select the latter?</p>

<p>As you can see <code>$(:not(tr.items) input)</code> selects all the inputs.</p>
