Selecting rows in jQuery

Question

I am a beginner in jQuery. I have a table with multiple rows, how do I select next row or previous row after selecting a particlar row?

Answer 1

For the next row (assuming myRow is your selected row element):

$(myRow).next();

I'd recommend using the very powerful selector syntax, instead of selecting previous and next elements based on currently selected element instances, however:

Answer 2

$(this).next();

or

$(this).prev();

Answer 3

I am selecting a row using "onclick" event and changing its class name to "xyz". now I want the next row to the row with classname "xyz".

I have used $(".xyz").next() & $(".xyz").prev(), but the result set is empty.
