I am using jQuery UI - v1.8.23 with jQuery v1.8.1 (with ThemeRoller UI-Lightness )

My button sizes were huge. I found that the button are rendered big because of the huge fonts. So I have overridden the font size in my project specific css file like below.

1. .ui-widget {
       font-family: Arial,Verdana,sans-serif;
       font-size: 0.7em;
   }

I have a string variable which contains HTML tags. Is it possible to the jQuery selector to pick a certain HTML element?

To be more specific,
I have a javascript variable which contains a row of a table
<TR><TD>value1</TD> <TD>value2</TD> <TD>value3</TD> <TD>value4</TD> <TD>value5</TD></TR>
How can I the value of third TD's value, i.e., value3

Thanks,

I am using DataTables 1.9.4 with jQuery 1.8.1.

I have created a table which has zero records on page load. On click of a button I am fetching data in the form of JSON using an external AJAX call. I need to load this JSON into the already existing data table.

I read through the examples and older discussions which suggests the usage of "sAjaxSource" option and "fnReloadAjax" function to load the data into data table. To my understanding it works only if make use of DataTable's built in AJAX feature.

How can I load the externally fetched JSON into an existing data table.

Thanks!

I am using jQuery v1.8.1 with jQuery UI v1.8.23.

I am trying to open a dialog box on load of the screen. I am having the following div in my JSP.

1. <div id="error-message1" title="This is the title!">
   This is a test error message.
   </div>

1. $("#error-message1").dialog({
           autoOpen: true,
           modal: true,
           height: 300,
           width: 300
       });

I am using DataTables 1.8.2 with jQuery 1.8.3.

I have added a CSS class to THEAD tage for formatting the table associated with the DataTables plugin.
$('thead').addClass("cssClassName");

I can see the applied style in Firefox(16.0.2) but not in IE8. Is there any alternate way to apply the style in both the browsers.

Thanks for any help!
