Only finding the next element
<p>ok i have this jquery </p>

<pre><code>    $('.make_request').ajaxForm(function() { 
// $('.band_notice').show();
$(this).parents('.accordionContent').find('.band_notice').show();
        }); 
</code></pre>

<p>I am using this <a href="http://www.malsup.com/jquery/form/" rel="nofollow">plugin</a> </p>

<p>I need to find the class element .band_notice that is in the form clicked</p>

<p>here is my html</p>

<pre><code>    &lt;div class="accordionContent"&gt;
&lt;form action="/make_requests" class="make_request" method="post"&gt;&lt;div style="margin:0;padding:0;display:inline"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;                                                      .......
            .......
    &lt;/tr&gt;
    &lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;input id="make_requests" name="commit" type="submit" value="Add to Set" /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;span class="band_notice"&gt;Set Added&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
                  &lt;/form&gt;


    &lt;div class="accordionContent"&gt;
&lt;form action="/make_requests" class="make_request" method="post"&gt;&lt;div style="margin:0;padding:0;display:inline"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;                                                      .......
            .......
    &lt;/tr&gt;
    &lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;input id="make_requests" name="commit" type="submit" value="Add to Set" /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;span class="band_notice"&gt;Set Added&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
                  &lt;/form&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>For some reason my jquery is a bit off bit this seems like it should be right</p>

<pre><code>$(this).parents('.accordionContent').find('.band_notice').show();
</code></pre>
