[jQuery] create table ID's from index

[Charlie Tomlinson]

have about 150 html tables ( all same format, headings etc). Trying to assign ID's based on fact they all carry appropriate name in same td index in table. not heavily versed in JS and closest I've come is $("table").each(function(i){                var country_name= $("this tr:eq(1) td:eq(1) ").html();                          this.id = country_name +this.id + i;         }); I can get the country_name to write to an alert however am having trouble getting it to work with index. Tried a variety of things ( swap html() fo rval(), tried $.merge etc my outputs to the ID's are working but I either get "undefined with index# or put various bracket on the var and it come out as text instead of it's value I don't have the server side experience to do this through php/sql etc and am really close now with it any help greatly appreciated
