$('table[id="' + tableID + '"]').find('tr').each(function () {
        alert($('td:last-child').attr("id"));

    });

what i get in the alert is the id of the first row’s last column in every iteration of the loop

An alternative might be:

$('table#'+ tableID +' tr').each(function () {
    var lastCellOfCurrentRowId = $(this).find('td:last-child').attr("id");
});

The important thing is the $(this) inside the each iterator. It refers to current element on the iteration, for instance each row element (TR) on the table. From that element you can do whatever you need, for this case just find the last cell ID.
