Here's an example using the index() function:
<head>
<script src="jquery-1.2.6.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<table>
<tr>
<td><a>0..</a></td>
<td><a>1..</a></td>
<td><a>2..</a></td>
<td><a id="linkID">3..</a></td>
<td class="test"><a>4..</a></td>
</tr>
</table>
<script>
test = $("td.test");
alert( $("tr td").index( test ) )
test = $("td a#linkID").parent();
alert( $("tr td").index( test ) )
</script>
</body>
