.width() giving error $(…)[0].width is not a function?

Question

I have a table, and I\'m trying to find the width of each td in the table. I\'ve tried all kinds of variations of: $(\"td\")[0].width(), but none of them work,

Answer 1

while you said I'm trying to find the width of each td in the table so you need to loop through tds by using .each() ..

$('td').each(function(){
   alert($(this).width());
});

and to select specific td there are more ways

by using :eq() selector

$('td:eq(0)');   // index start from 0

or .eq() in jquery

$('td').eq(0)        // index start from 0

or :nth-child() selector

$('td:nth-child(1)');    // index start from 1
