Thanks for taking the time to contribute to the jQuery project by writing a bug report. But this code won't work in any browser. At the end of your manipulations myTable doesn't contain the table but a td element. You are probably missing a .end() at the end of your chain.

Please always try extra hard to check you didn't make a mistake before reporting something as a bug as the jQuery bug tracker is not for support requests.

If you are not really sure you found a bug please first try the #jquery irc channel on freenode or use the jQuery Forum for help to make sure it isn't just a simple error in the code.

There is no ":nth" pseudoselector .. it's :nth-child or :eq
