    You can use .text() to get the text value of a cell, and .parent() to get the element’s parent. Combining these, you can loop the td tags, check if they contain ‘red’, and if so, get their .parent() and set its background-color to red.

    See http://jsfiddle.net/sjuKa/2/ for a working example 🙂
