In JavaScript, getElementById('myTable').rows[1].cells[2] would select
the cell that is in 2nd row of the 3rd column.
What is the jQ equivalent of this? (or maybe jQ has a different and
better way of doing this?)
This is some HTML markup using the JS method :
<html>
<head>
<script type = "text/javascript" src="jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function()
{
$('#btn').click(function ()
{
var cell=document.getElementById('myTable').rows[1].cells[2]
alert(cell.innerHTML)}) // displays 'g correct!'
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<table id="myTable" border="1">
<tr>
<td>a</td>
<td>b</td>
<td>c</td>
<td>d</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>e</td>
<td>f</td>
<td>g correct!</td> <!-- this is the cell selected by
document.getElementById('myTable').rows[1].cells[2] -->
<td>h</td>
</tr>
</table>
<br />
<input type="button" id='btn' value="Display contents of selected
cell">
</body>
</html>
TIA
