Disable DIV with jQuery

Here's a lame trick I use to disable divs:

// this works on IE

// disable
$('#myDiv').attr('disabled', 'disabled');


// enable
$('#myDiv').attr('disabled', '');

Disabling the whole div doesn't seem to disable inputs in chrome and firefox though, so here's the alternative version drilling down to each single input elements:

// this works everywhere but looks weird in IE


// disable
$('#myDiv :input').attr('disabled', 'disabled'); 


// enable
$('#myDiv :input').attr('disabled', '');

Good hacking.
