We consider a family of quadrilateral or hexahedral mixed -finite elements for an incompressible flow problem with -elements for the velocity and discontinuous -elements for the pressure where the order can vary from element to element between and an arbitrary bound. For multilevel adaptive grids with hanging nodes and a sufficiently small mesh size, we prove the inf-sup condition uniformly with respect to the mesh size and the polynomial degree.
