Hi,
Assuming your table has the same number of <td>s in each <tr>.
You can try this approach:
First find the position of the selected <td> in its <tr>.
Then find the prev() or next() <tr>.
Then select the <td> with the same position in that <tr>.
Try this:
$('td').click(function(){
var trparent = $(this).parent('tr');
var position = $('td', $(this).parent('tr')).index(this);
$('td:eq('+ position +')', $(trparent).prev('tr')).css
('color','white');
$('td:eq('+ position +')', $(trparent).next('tr')).css
('color','green');
});
