how to add class to cell using jquery

Question

I try to class to cell but i got the erroe .please correct my code

TypeError: table.rows[rowscount].cells[0].addClass is not a function

table.rows[rowscount].cells[0].addClass("txtwidth");

Answer 1

.addClass() is a function provided by jQuery, so it needs to be called in the jQuery wrapper object instead you are trying to invoke it using a dom element reference

It is a messy solution

$(table.rows[rowscount].cells[0]).addClass("txtwidth");

or

$(table).find('tr:eq(' + rowscount+') td:first-child').addClass("txtwidth");
