Here is my snippet:
var myIndex = $j("#show_medication").parents("tr")...
#show_medication is a form element.
parents("tr") is the row containing the element
Now I want to get the rowIndex
Once I have the rowIndex property I would call the moveRow function as
follows:
$j("#show_medication").parents('table:eq(0)').moveRow(myIndex, myIndex-
someNumber, true)
