I can do this to select all td's with a class of someclass var cells = $("td.someclass");
My page my have more than one table so this would select all matching td's. What I need to do is isolate the selection to only the cells in the table where a row was clicked. I've tried var cells = $("td.someclass").filter(this.parents("table")); but that is throwing an error w/in jQuery.
