Question : JavaScript: Get all checkboxes inside div

My code gets all checkboxes but I only want the checkboxes inside <div id="special">

1:
2:
3:
4:
5:
6:
var inputs = document.getElementsByTagName("input"); 
   for (var i = 0; i < inputs.length; i++) {
     if (inputs[i].type == "checkbox") {
     /// Do something
     }
   }

In the example below I want the first two checkboxes but not the last two.

1:
2:
3:
4:
5:
6:
7:
8:
9:
<div id="special">
<input type="checkbox" name="a" value="1" />
<input type="checkbox" name="b" value="2" />
</div>

<div id="other">
<input type="checkbox" name="c" value="3" />
<input type="checkbox" name="d" value="4" />
</div>
