[jQuery] create table ID's from index

<body bgcolor="#ffffff" text="#000066">
<font face="Trebuchet MS"><font face="Arial"><small>have about 150 html
tables ( all same format, headings etc). Trying to assign ID's based on
fact they all carry appropriate name in same td index in table.
not heavily versed in JS and closest I've come is
$("table").each(function(i){
var country_name= $("this tr:eq(1) td:eq(1)
").html();
this.id = country_name +this.id + i;
});
I can get the country_name to write to an alert however am having
trouble getting it to work with index. Tried a variety of things ( swap
html() fo rval(), tried $.merge etc
my outputs to the ID's are working but I either get "undefined with
index# or put various bracket on the var and it come out as text
instead of it's value
I don't have the server side experience to do this through php/sql etc
and am really close now with it
any help greatly appreciated
