Thanks. :)  Yeah, selectors are a kind of hobby for me. Sad, I know.

Anyway, I'm thinking we can make it even more terse this way:

$('tr[td:contains("term")]').addClass('foo');

Cheers,
Karl

Wow, that is terse! I like it. I really need to get better at selectors as
that wouldn't have occurred to me. Nice.

Hi Graeme,

Try something like this:

$('td:contains("term")').parent().addClass('foo');

Hello,

I'm looking to highlight 1 or more rows of a table which have a
cell whose contents match a search term I provide.  Does anyone
have an easy way to do this?

Thanks!

Graeme
