I have a table with a class name of dataTable. This table also has TR's with a class of either primary or alternate. When someone mouses over a TR I want the background color to change. So i try using this, but it keeps telling me that .removeClass or addClass is not a function. What am I doing wrong?

$('table.dataTable tr').bind('mouseover',function(){this.removeClass( 'primary').removeClass('alternate').css("backgroun d-color", "999");}, false);

"this" inside of an event refers to the raw DOM object, not jQuery. If you want it to return jQuery, you need to refer to it as $(this) or jQuery(this).

UGH! I swear I tried that and it didn't work! It seems to work now, thanks!
