Jquery select all form fields except other fields

Question

<form id="test">
   <input type="text" name="title" value="I am title">
   <div id="text1">
      <input type="text" name="module-title" value="I am module title">
   </div>
   <div id="test2">
      <input type="text" name="article-title" value="I am article title">
   </div>
</form>

How do I select by jquery all the form (i.e. #test) input fields, except all the input fields which are inside "#test2".

Answer 1

Try

$('#test input:text').not('#test2 input:text')

Answer 2

$('#test :input:not(#test2 :input)')

:input is a special pseudo-selector which matches all input elements, like input, select and textarea.
