[jQuery] How can I make a td clickable?

Hello,
I have something like this:
...
<td class="menuitem" width="100" align="center" nowrap><a
href="index.html" class="menu">Home</a></td>
...
How can I make the whole td clickable leading to index.html not just
the text.
I searched Google but I couldn't find anything about this. Your help
would be greatly appreciated.
