jQuery selector to get form by name

by

$('form[name="frmSave"]') is correct. You mentioned you thought this would get all children with the name frmsave inside the form; this would only happen if there was a space or other combinator between the form and the selector, eg: $('form [name="frmSave"]');

$('form[name="frmSave"]') literally means find all forms with the name frmSave, because there is no combinator involved.
