Get td by title with jQuery?

as topic says, how do I get a t开发者_运维百科d in a table by it's title? I then want to hide it.

Thanks in advance.

You could do this:

$('td[title=Herbert]').hide();

$("td[title='mytitle']").... 

look at this link :

http://api.jquery.com/attribute-equals-selector/

Something like ...

$('table[title="the title"]').hide();

or if using the caption ...

$('table[caption="the caption"]').hide();

Bearing in mind the following:

If you wish to use any of the meta-characters (#;&,.+*~':"!^$=>|/ ) as a literal part of a name, you must escape the character with two backslashes: \\. For example, if you have an an input with name="names[]", you can use the selector $("input[name=names\\[\\]]").

As per Selectors - JQuery API

By title as attribute: td[title="table title"]

By title as content: td:contains(table title)

Please be more explicit.
