Excluding one input from .each actions

Given an input defined thusly:

<input type="text" id="connectionsCount" />

shouldn't this code exclude actions that would otherwise execute.

$("开发者_StackOverflow.cartOption .value .input").not('#connectionsCount').each(function () {

it would invoke on any matched elements that don't match #connectionsCount, so it applies to everything but that.

I found that the other selectors were parents of my #connectionsCount element so i needed to check the children:

.children().not('input:#connectionsCount')
