    straight javascript is pretty easy.

    grab a reference to a known element above the a element higher up the tree
    get a list of a elements under the known element
    match the href property to the value you know

    var anchor = null;
var container;
var items;

container = document.getElementById('tableContainer');
items = container.getElementsByTagName('a');

for (var j = 0; j < items.length; j++) {
    if (items[j].href === 'http://www.msn.com') {
        anchor = items[j];
        break;
    }
}

    it would be better if you could directly reference the table element and then get a list of a elements from there, but if that’s the only table in tableContainer it’s fine.

    for checking the href property for a known value, i usually go with a case-insensitive regex but this should be fine for your case.
