Thanks. I tried that but it did not work. Tried placing it within
the function, outside the function, etc. I think the issue has
something to do with the dynamic creation of the table. I've done
this in the past with Spry which has operators that enable you to do
this. I haven't been able to find similar features in jQuery.
