Question

I have this function which enables hover event on a table. It currently excludes the
header row but I also need it to exclude the very first column. Any ideas?

  $(".GridViewStyle > tbody > tr:not(:has(table, th))")                
                .mouseover(function(e) {  

Answer 1

$(".GridViewStyle > tbody > tr:not(:has(table, th)) td:not(:first-child)")

but you will have hover or mouseover fired for tds not trs. so in handler you’ll do

$(this).closest('tr')

to access tr which you was going to change style etc
