Cam, I'm hiding all rows only in anticipation of showing the higher
levels of the tree that is represented by this table. Each row has a
class associated with it that indicates the level which simply has a
left-margin css value associated with it giving the appearance of
subordination in the tree. Essentially, I hide all relevant rows,
then show rows with classes leveln where n is incremented in a loop,
so if I select to show only the first 3 levels, I hide all, show
level1, level2, and level3, leaving the rest hidden.
There may be a better way to do it, but that's what I came up with.
As for hiding the tbody, that does not allow me to then show the rows
that I want to be visible, because their parent element is hidden.

If you are trying to hide allrows would it be possible to hide either the
table or the tbody?

I've been converting a legacy web app to use JQuery. I've now cleaned
it up so that my HTML validates and I have instrumented the code with
classes and id's as appropriate. This app is essentially a table that
displays the status of jobs for Autosys.
The problem that I'm having is that when I hide the entire list, the
browser hangs for several minutes.
There are sometimes over 2000 rows. I have cached the full resultset
into a variable, though I'm not sure how helpful this is.
In the code below, the initial setting of $allRows doesn't take much
time at all, but when I hit the hide() line, the browser hangs for
wy too long. interestingly, if I comment out the hide() command,
and then manually issue a comand like $allRows.css(color, red); it
works in a very reasonable amount of time.
$(function() {
$allRows = $(tbodytr);
$allRows.hide();
}
Also, if I let it run once to completion and all of the rows are
hidden, then I can show() them and hide() them in reasonable time.
Is it something with my selector?
Thanks, folks.
Eric
