Assunto: [jQuery] Re: text of first sibling of a parent...How do I get it
There is no reason why you shouldn't get this working with one of the
examples provided. For the nesting issue, filter with :first:
$('#knowndiv').
ensure that the script src of jquery is correct

There is no reason why you shouldn't get this working with one of the
examples provided. For the nesting issue, filter with :first:
$('#knowndiv').parents('tr:first').children('td:first').text();
parents(xx:first) is similar to closest(xx), only the latter will also
try to match the element itse
I must say, I have not tried "closest()" and "prevAll()". I'll give
it another go with your suggestions before I throw in the towel.
Thanks.

Yes, that is the first thing I did, to no avail. I think all I am
left with just trudging through this with pure javascript.

The problem with parents() in the example given is that if your page
structure is more complex, and has nested tables for example, then
parents() will return all parent tables. Likewise if there are tr's
preceding the tr in your example. Here's a couple ways to get the text
you're asking for:
$('
have you tried
var myText = $('#knowndiv').parents('tr').find('td:first').text();
alert(myText);
The TR is really the parent of the TDs, not the table.

Mauricio, your code basically works fine on a simple test page. But
there is something about my set-up that makes the bit about
".parents('table')" fail. My page still has the same exact element
structure with 2 differences; there are 52 "tr"s in the table; also,
all the elements (tables, trs, t
var myText = $('#knowndiv').parents('table').find('td:first').text();
alert(myText);

Assunto: [jQuery] text of first sibling of a parent...How do I get it
first lets give an ID to your table
now heres your script.
var obj = $("mytable");
var rows = $("tr"):
// according to this we going to find text in the first td of the first tr
rows.each(function(i) {
var columns = rows.eq(i);
alert(columns.eq(0).text());
});
the script above should give
13 matches
