Unfortunately, I don't have an example up.
But, to my mind, it makes sense to do $('#myElement').parent().parent() because the parent of the <input> is a <td> and the parent of the <td> is the <tr>. Or is that wrong?

What happens if you just do:
$('#myElement').parent().before('<tr>...</tr>');
It seems like something like that should work just fine. (The fact
that .parent().parent() works kind of makes me suspicious) Do you have
an example up anywhere of the problem in action?
