:visible and :nth-child selector

Description

there is a problem with not visible elements (in my case TRs)

".tab tr:visible:even" works as expected, but "tr:visible:nth-child(2n-1)" not, it probably matches not only visible but all elements.

example: http://jsbin.com/ezocu

$(function() {

$("#t1 tr:eq(3)").hide();

$("#t2 tr:eq(3)").hide();

$(".tab tr:visible:even").addClass("even");

$(".tab tr:visible:nth-child(even)").addClass("even2");

});

Note that :eq and :even are 0-based and apply to the entire collection (with tr elements crossing two tables in this example ) whereas :nth-child is 1-based and applies to the sibling order regardless of visibility. Whether the tr is visible or not does not affect the :nth-child() selector; it is still that child whether it is visible or not. When I look at the markup in Firebug it doesn't seem that the hidden elements ever have even2 applied to them so it seems like the :visible:nth-child() combination worked properly.
