My HTML form has a number of divs that are the steps of a wizard. Upon clicking a "next" button I want to validate just the active div. I'm using the jQuery.Validate.js plugin.

Each div has an ID, so I want a way to say something like:

wizardForm.validate().element('#first-step :input')

but this only validates the first input, not all of them. How can I validate all inputs within a div?
