Ugly fix instead of using the above involves specifying parentId css class and childId css class for parent and child rows, and then using a widget to re-adjust. Just in case anyone else runs across this problem. It is clearly not the best code at all, but it works for me!

$("tbody tr[class^='parent']", table).each(function() {
 $(this).after($("tbody tr[class^='child"+$(this).attr("class").substring(6)+"']", table));
});
