JQuery selectors

[244863]

<div class="employee">

    <div class="input text required">

          <select id="Name3Risk" class="risk" name="data[Name][3][risk]" style="margin-left: 105px"</select>

 

I have a form field like this and am trying to transverse to the field to make changes to the attributes.

 

$(".employee", $("#employees")

    .children(".input")

          .children()

 

In the .children() I have tried:

 

"select"

".select"

"input[&type:select]"

"input:select"

 

And nothing seems to work. ANY IDEAS???
