I'm working on a table that has nested tables. My problem is that I need to retrieve all the rows for the main table, but ignore the nested tables. I know I can do something like this:
$("#mytable > tbody > tr"); But my table reference is passed into my function(s) as a parameter. So can I do something like this then? $("tbody > tr", tblRef); If I'm understanding correctly that would give me all the TRs within the context of my tblRef element. But wouldn't that also include the nested tables? Or maybe this $("tbody:first > tr", tblRef); ?? I know as a fallback I can do $(tblRef).children("tbody").children("tr"); But that seems inefficient to me... Any tips on doing this? Thanks in advance. Shawn
