[jQuery] Re: XHTML Selector Nightmare

Try this:

 

$('.sMarker ~ row', myTable).not($('.eMarker ~ row', myTable))

 

That will get what you want, but I think it won't include the .sMarker row. To get .sMarker also, maybe try:

 

$('.sMarker,.sMarker ~ row', myTable).not($('.eMarker ~ row', myTable))

 

You can also do it by index without each() like this:

 

var $rows = $('row', myTable);

var $range = $rows.slice($rows.index($rows.filter('.sMarker')), $rows.index($rows.filter('.eMarker'))+1);

 

Hope it helps.

I really don't know why I'm having such a hard time with this (maybe its the
two monsters and three cups of coffee) but I'm trying to select a range of
rows in a 1000 row xhtml table, between starting row with class "sMarker"
and ending row with class "eMarker".  I'm trying to use the following
selector...

$('.sMarker ~ row:not(".eMarker ~ row")',myTable)

In my mind this should take my ".sMarker" row, grab all sibling rows after,
and then filter out any rows that come after my ".eMarker" row.  Or am I
just overthinking this?

Currently that selector will select ALL rows after my ".sMarker" excluding
the single row marked with ".eMarker".

Note:  To filter out any responses that are blindingly obvious, the table
row tags in my xhtml are really "row" not tr.

I don't know how else to get this "between" functionality without using
indexes and the each iteration is a huge performance loss when dealing with
larger tables.

Please help because I can not wrap my head around this one this morning.

Thanks,
