FInally I solved my problem. When the dataTable is being rendered, then it uses both the row number and the col number to generate the IDs, so I made use of the rowIndexVar and var properties of DataTable and UIColumns respectively to be able to access this information at runtime through EL. Then I created a simple _javascript_ function that replaced the ID I had at my code, with the extra information of rows and cols.
Works like a charm!!!!
Thanks very much again for those who have given me help and tips ;-)

So you have some component (eg a button) that when clicked needs to
perform some operation on each row of column N in a table?
Then how about having each of your (custom) components in a table emit
script like:
<script>
register_name_field('client-id-goes-here');
</script>
You provide a _javascript_ function register_name_field that adds the
parameter to a list variable in the page. Result: as the html page is
processed, each such component adds its id to a list that can be
accessed later.
