Question

my jquery loops through all tables

I would like to hide all spans with the class=”cbox” and all checkboxes within the current table
but my code isnt working.

     var table_ids = new Array();
    $('.sizetable')
   .each(function(e){
    tableid = $(this).attr('id');


    //$msg = tableid;
    //alert($msg); This alerts the correct id 
    $( "#" + tableid + " .cbox").hide();
    $( "#" + tableid + " input:checkbox").hide();

     };

Here is the jsfiddle http://www.jsfiddle.net/tommyd/Br42j/

Just use $('.sizetable .cbox, .sizetable input:checkbox').hide(). Selecting by ID is faster, but you’re already selecting by class to get the ID, might as well just go from there and hide all .cbox and input:checkbox
