Basic Selectors Question

[PaulF-3]

Hi,

I have what I think is probablt a pretty easy question, but I have
tried numerous selctors without getting the correct id.

I have a form which is dynamically generating form fields and tables
all over the place.  I need to pull an ID of the last table inside of
a particular td.  I have tried:
 $("#mytd table:last").attr("id");  and a few other things none of
which successful.

<td id="mytd">
   <table id="mytable0"></table>
   <table id="mytable1"></table>
   <table id="mytable2"></table>
   <table id="mytable..n"></table>
</td>

Can somone help me out?  Thanks in advance!

I'm working with resizable plugin and I see on documentation
(http://docs.jquery.com/UI/Resizables/resizable) that there is one
option "proxy" that will add the specified className to the proxy element.
Whatever I set on the options is avoided, because resizable always
attach a "proxy" css className.
Is this a documentation, code or my error?

Thanks.

Hi,

I think my issue may have related to a broken DOM from the code I was
appending to the form.  I fixed those issues, and then used:

var table_id = $("#funds_list > table:last").attr("id");

Which is working well.  Thanks for the help!
