I'd like to find out if a table cell is actually visible or not. Is there a method in any plugin that will do this work for me?
The complexity is that any element in the cell's parent chain may be display:none, in which case it would be hidden. But the cell's corresponding <col> or <colgroup> tag may also be display:none which would cause it to be hidden as well, and those tags are not parents of the cell itself. Checking the cell's current 'display' value will of course get me nowhere. I've begun writing logic to handle this case, but it would be great if someone has already done it! Matt Kruse
