Hi, I would like to have the previous TD element with class "time".
I tried : $(this).closest('td').prev('td.time').html() (where "this" is a div element inside a TD) But it only works for a div inside a TD that is *directly* following the td.time element. See the code below: my jquery selector above is only working for the div's inside <td class="lun01032010"> (where the latter is directly following td.time element), not for the div's inside <td class="mar02032010"> <td class="time"> 8am </td> <td class="lun01032010"> <div class="quarter daylun"> </div> <div class="quarter daylun"> </div> <div class="quarter daylun"> </div> <div class="quarter daylun"> </div> </td> <td class="mar02032010"> <div class="quarter daymar"> </div> <div class="quarter daymar"> </div> <div class="quarter daymar"> </div> <div class="quarter daymar"> </div> </td> Thank you for any help. мэтт -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Get-the-previous-element-matching-a-class-tp27757091s27240p27757091.html Sent from the jQuery General Discussion mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
