Thanks, yes, I should have mentioned - I do have jQuery.noConflict() declared at the top of each of my scripts to avoid conflicts in general.
I've also stepped through the code in a debugger using Firebug. I put a breakpoint on my selector for the anchor tag, and I see in the debugger that it seems to go right past the selector. But, if I put this link outside the table and run it through the debugger, the selector does work properly.
