Add anchor to text inside table cells

Add anchor to text inside table cells

Hi there,

I'm kinda new in jQuery, used till today only jQuery plugins, but want to start using the jQuery itself.

Suppose I have such a table:

  1. <table>
    <tr>
        <td>some text1. <br /> textToLink1</td>
        <td>some text2. <br /> textToLink2</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td>some text3. <br /> textToLink3</td>
        <td>some text4. <br /> textToLink4</td>
    </tr>
    </table>









I want that the different textToLink inside a cell will convert to links anchors.
How may I do such a thing?
Notice that I don't want that all the text in the cell will become a link, just part of it.

Second question is how to add a strong markup to these links?
Third and last question is how to make each textToLink become a different link.

So in the end of process I will have something like this:

  1. <table>
    <tr>
        <td>some text1. <br /> <strong><a href="www.some_link1">textToLink1</a></strong></td>
        <td>some text2. <br /> <strong><a href="www.some_link2">textToLink2</a></strong></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td>some text3. <br /> <strong><a href="www.some_link3">textToLink3</a></strong></td>
        <td>some text4. <br /> <strong><a href="www.some_link4">textToLink4</a></strong></td>
    </tr>
    </table>









I assume I will also need somehow to define some vars to match every textToLink string to the links they should be turning to.

Thanks a lot,
Maor
