Hey Mike, thanks for you answers... your code is being executed much faster, thanks! I just changed this:
var $td = $('td',this); to var $td = $('td:gt(1)',this); Because I want to exclude the first TD from the checking. Right now it's conflicting with another line of code that "stripes" (zebra- like) the table... this is the code that makes de stripes: $(".table tr:nth- child(even)").not(".dontStripeThis").addClass("mouseOverTR"); I'm working to solve this problem, thank you all.
