I'm struggling with the following:

Say, for example, i have a table with an undefined number of rows.
Row 1 contains number 1 to 10, row 2 contains 11 to 20... you get the picture.
The table is autogenerated and id's are made unique by the system (GUID's plus id).
I am able to add a 'name' attribute to 'img''s that are in the td's and add a groupname
i.e. '11to20'. Using this i want to test showing/hiding group rows.

Now I have a dropdownlist on the page where the user selects the groupname from
i.e. "11to20". I would like to be able to hide the rows not having the selected groupname
and show the rows that do.

I've constructed a query that would hide the selected groupname but it hides all tr's.

$(obj).attr('name', obj.options[obj.selectedIndex].value).parents('tr').siblings().fadeOut('fast');

here's the (simplified) sample html i constructed by hand for this message:

I hope someone has a solution because whatever I try, it's not giving me the desired results.
